[Hiring] Psychopomp.com Writers

Written By Sean Markey

Sean lives in an old farmhouse in northern Vermont, and is pretty sure the house isn’t very haunted… He works as a marketer during the day and is also the publisher of The Deadlands, a little magazine about beginnings and endings you may or may not have heard of.

Do you love to consume gothy, death-focused media? Books, TV, movies, games, (…fashion?) and other culturally relevant things?

Have you been looking to pick up a side gig WRITING ABOUT those things that you love to consume?

Well, good news for you!

Psychopomp.com is looking to hire a few good writers to create articles each week or every other week on those very topics.

We’re looking for people to write about things like:

  • these are the best 55 books about time travel
  • these 5 books coming out next month are SO DEATHY
  • haunted houses, we’re in favor of them, here’s a list of the scariest
  • new gothy movies to look out for
  • multiverse movies that I still don’t know what actually happened
  • death
  • goth
  • space goth?
  • funeral fashion show
  • etc. etc. you get it, we don’t even know, this is a box we can’t define but can sort of wave our arms at.

Reactions, lists, essays, criticism, reviews, etc.

Pay: $250/mo for a weekly schedule, $125/mo for bi-weekly.

Length: eh, at least 750, probably somewhere between 750 and 1500 is ideal.

Vibe: trying to write blog content here for a specific audience, not a dissertation on GOTHNESS (although…) so content should broken into sections with headings.

To apply, just fill out this form (do not email us about it). If we think you’d be a good fit, we’ll be in touch!

If you have questions ABOUT this (even though it’s all pretty straightforward), email us at the address in the site’s footer).

Thank you!
