If you’ve been here for a minute, you’ll know that I’ve been publishing a weekly creator news series on Sundays.

But I’ve decided to move back to my previous sunday tea series instead — essentially, a conversation with you over tea about writing, behind-the-scenes of my creative process, and other topics and resources I think you’ll find useful in your writing and creating journey.

I’m placing part of this sunday tea series under the paywall because it takes a bit of time to curate, and I want to say thank you to the paid subscribers that help make it possible to spend so much time crafting resources and articles for you here at 💡 Sutoscience. 🙏 Thank you!

🍵 let’s catch up over tea: get paid to write for other substacks, welcome to my journey publishing fiction on substack

🫖 tea I’m drinking today: ginger + lemon tea. I’ve been freezing ice cube trays of juiced ginger and lemon that I juice myself and make in big batches. It’s been a nice way to have daily fresh ginger and lemon tea with out having to juice and brew it from scratch every morning!

✍️ a creative resource I want you to check out: there’s been an embarrassment of riches on the ✍️ Make Writing Your Job writing job board which I curate alongside my partner Kyle and our team. There’s been several standout jobs this week I just wanted to flag:

first, there are lots of Substacks hiring culture writers + other types of writers at $30-$70/hour. I’ve said this before and will say it again — Substack is the new form of media! It’s a business model that makes so much sense, which is why we’re starting to see an uptick in people hiring writers/editors specifically for their Substacks. These opps are great to apply to if you are still figuring out your own Substack and want to gain some experience writing for others and get paid for it.
second, if you’re a big fan of the podcasts s-town and this american life, then there’s a story producer job for six-figures (it’s a 1099 role) on friday’s job board along with 30+ other opps we’ve curated for you I think you’ll dig. I spent a lot of time working in the podcast space and it still has a special place in my heart.
