this is my semi-frequent reminder for new-ish freelance writers...
if you need money more than you need a byline, consider copywriting.
legit brands who hire copywriters have advertising/marketing budgets and (in my experience) pay fairly and on time.

an example:
someone posted publication rates on here: $100–$250/article. Articles that would likely take a TON of time, research, skill, thought, care.
i recently made $1,000 writing one email newsletter for a client. a SINGLE email.
it shouldn't be this way, but it is.

...and i believe my work is worth every penny. more, even!
but there are incredible freelance writers out there struggling to get by because the media industry is broken.
find a way to get paid somewhere else if you have to. you deserve it.
