Full Description

Self-care culture needs better editors. (So do we.) (the)MAGAZINE is looking for copy editors and proofreaders to join our editorial circle for Issue 5. If you have an eye for grammar, believe in the power of precise language, and want to shape stories that challenge wellness industry narratives—we want you in. (No pay, but you’ll get credit, portfolio work, and access to a collective that’s building alternative media.) What we need: • Proofreading (spelling, punctuation, formatting) • Copy editing (clarity, tone, sentence flow) • Flexible time commitment—anything you can spare About the work: Are you a passionate editor, proofreader, or wordsmith eager to make a difference in independent publishing? (the)MAGAZINE’s fifth issue, Wellness Rewired, asks contributors and readers: What does wellness actually mean to you? We’re exploring how people are redefining, rejecting, or rewiring the narratives sold to us by a $4.5 trillion industry. We’re building a small collective of editors to polish articles (up to 1,000 words each) before publication. Your work will support emerging voices, thoughtful storytelling, and a vision that challenges mainstream narratives. Key Details: • Remote, flexible, short-term opportunity • Most articles will be ready by January 31 • Volunteer editing window: February 1–6 • Role: Copy editing, proofreading, or both Why Join? (No money, but you’ll be part of something real) • Get credited in our fifth issue—your name in a publication that’s already building momentum (check out past issues at www.themagazine.pub) and available in print via MagCloud. • Build your editorial portfolio with work that actually has a point of view (not corporate content or SEO filler). • Connect with writers, editors, and creatives who are building alternative media—the kind of network you can’t buy. • Shape stories that challenge the $4.5 trillion wellness industry’s narratives before they go live. • Join a tight-knit editorial collective that might just become your favorite creative community. Think you’re a fit? Email hello@themagazine.pub with: • Your availability during Feb 1–6 • Whether you want to copyedit, proofread, or both • Optional: Resume or portfolio link if you have one We only publish when there’s something worth saying—and we’re selective about who helps us say it. #WellnessRewired #VolunteerOpportunity #CopyEditing #Proofreading #MagazineVolunteer #MentalHealth #SubcultureMedia
