Write With Every

TLDR: We’re looking for four new writers to join our writer collective! We’re accepting writers as part of a batch, and the deadline to be part of it is September 3, 2021 at midnight. The first space in the new batch has been filled by Adam Davidson of the New Yorker and the Planet Money podcast. Apply here.

Hey! Dan, Nathan, and Rachel here.

It’s now been five months since we announced this experiment in publishing we’re calling a “writer collective,” where we try to balance the benefits of self-publishing with the editorial support and distribution that traditional publications offer. We’re pleased to report that since we started Every has generated over $700K in revenue and now reaches nearly 40K readers both free and paid.

Our writers have received raises, job offers, investment solicitations, interview requests, and Twitter followers. They report tired fingers and overall increases in the number of times per month they say to themselves, “Damn, I wrote something great.” Tyler Cowen and Anne-Helen Peterson have praised their work; Every posts have been shared in Vox, The Hustle and Morning Brew, hit the front page of Hacker News, and been collected in best-of-week lists across the internet. Importantly, Every newsletters are growing—on average each active publication in the collective is growing by 500 new subscribers per month. And we expect that to only get better over time. So far, so good!

So good, in fact, that we’re ready to expand. We’re opening up applications to join us. So we wrote you this letter to tell you all about it. It’s for anyone with a sparkle in their eye for a topic in the startup world, who is passionate about its future, who understands the durable power of the written word, and believes that writing together is better than writing alone. 

If you’re looking for an audience, a coach, and a team to write with—as well as a share in the upside—we’re here, and looking for you.
