Congratulations on your big step! This sounds exciting, if they are corresponding with you it sounds promising! I thought about using writing job boards but they all require degrees and experience in specific areas. The boards don’t seem to want a freelancer, but an employee? So is this an online magazine or one for print that you approached? I use to do tons of email queries back in the day to magazines for print, and never heard back. I got one gig with an online magazine editor, it didn’t pay well so I didn’t stay with them long. I am wondering if web content writers is more of what people want now days?
