Every decade or so, the entire writing-for-money paradigm shifts yet again. To write for money is to get very comfortable with constantly changing your expectations, your strategy, your skillset. It's a lot, particularly when all you really probably want to do is... write. So to talk about how to navigate this ever-changing and increasingly unsustainable business, host Anne Helen Petersen is joined by Jennifer Romolini. Jennifer's been in the writing biz for a long time, and she's now the host of Crooked Media's new podcast, Stiffed, about the rise and fall of Viva Magazine in the 1970s.
