Writer roles at the Bylines Network

The Bylines Network is a not-for-profit citizen journalism organisation. It has eight regionally-based publications in England, one in Scotland and one in Wales.

The Network has ongoing opportunities for writers. If you would like the opportunity to publish articles on subjects that matter to you, or if you’re keen to develop your skills with a view to breaking into professional journalism, we would love to hear from you.

While your choice of subject matter is up to you, we also commission pieces on issues of local, national and international importance, so if you would like to explore this type of writing, let us know. We have a range of courses and educational materials available to help you learn how professional journalists operate. We will introduce you to an editor who will work with you to help make your writing the best it can be.

The only articles we won’t consider publishing are those that are defamatory or attack members of particular groups. We have progressive values and want to contribute to levelling the playing field in the UK media, so we particularly encourage applications from members of under-represented groups. If you have something to say but writing is difficult for you because of a disability or lack of education, let us know and we will do our best to help. We believe that your voice deserves to be heard.

We work online, with groups you can join if you want to engage with members of the wider team. We don’t require any specific commitment in terms of hours and you can work out a schedule that suits you with you editor-in-chief. We have a dedicated social media team to help promote your work. We are a volunteer-led organisation and always welcome new ideas.

Are you interested in supporting children and young people’s education, mental and physical health through the performing arts, theatre and dance?

You could be a trustee for Artemis Studios, a Bracknell-based charity that’s now growing our Board, ready for the next stages of development.

This, of course, means our charity Board of trustees is still growing, and needs new skills and abilities to achieve that growth.

If you have specific interests or skills in funding, fund-raising, strategic planning or the legal duties of trustees, we’d really like to talk with you; in any case, if you’re interested in helping our organisation’s growth as part of our collective Board, please read on and apply.

• Publication of your work to a global audience on a fast-growing platform.
• A link to your writing portfolio to include in your CV.

This is a brilliant opportunity for someone with a passion for the arts and culture to join a community on a worthy mission. If you love the idea, then please email Emma by clicking on ‘Apply’ and writing a short cover letter explaining what you like about the role.

COMMENTS FROM OUR WRITERS

Claire Woods — MA Creative Writing, Open University

‘The editors have a keen eye for detail, and I’m learning so much already!’

Florence Gildea — MPhil Sociology, University of Cambridge

‘The level of support, the attention to detail and the encouragement I experienced while writing for The Cultural Me was absolutely unprecedented in all my years of writing. Editing is an underappreciated skill these days, as people are keen to publish content as quickly as possible. It is a testament to the commitment of the Editors at The Cultural Me for producing resources of the highest quality that they put so much time and effort into working with writers like me. I felt both stretched and valued.’

Zoe Willis — BA French and German, University of Bristol

‘Working on The Cultural Me micro-articles really made me interrogate what I was writing, making sure the subject was absolutely clear for those reading it. At university, you are never told to examine each sentence as to how it fits in with your argument.’

Elise Czyzowska — BA English Literature & Language, University of Oxford

‘Writing for The Cultural Me has allowed me to continue practising my analytical reading from university, and given me the opportunity to share my thoughts on the literature I know and love.’

Nicholas Benton — BA English Literature, University of Sheffield

‘The Cultural Me provided me with a detailed commendatory reference that helped me secure a place on a master’s degree at the University of Birmingham.’

Tom Mackinnon — BA History of Art, University of Cambridge

‘Since starting to write for The Cultural Me, I’ve actually learned a lot about writing for mainstream readers. At the same time, I really enjoy being able to keep in touch with the topics I love. I do recommend this experience to anyone wanting to pursue a career in writing, curation or education.’
