Good opportunities should come with clear expectations.

WHAT YOU CONTROL

Your time and participation

There are no required hours, fixed schedules or guaranteed assignments. Contributors choose whether to pitch or submit and may stop at any time.

WHAT FPJ CONTROLS

Editorial standards

FPJ may accept, edit or decline submissions. Publication, audience exposure, networking outcomes and future jobs are never guaranteed.

This is not an employment offer or guaranteed paid role. However, contributors can compete for FPJ’s funded Weekly Rewards Pot when it is active, and standout work may lead to paid assignments or other ways to monetize their writing as FPJ grows. Availability, eligibility and amounts will vary.
