✍️ Reminder: Complete the MWYJ 2025 Rate Transparency Survey
Help shape the most honest pay snapshot of 2025 — what writers, editors, and freelancers are actually earning in their writing work.
Hey writer,
Just a quick reminder that the MWYJ 2025 Rate Transparency Survey is now live.
One of the most common questions we hear at ✍️ Make Writing Your Job is:
“What are writers and editors actually getting paid?”
This short, 3-5 minute, anonymous survey helps us answer that with real data — across roles, experience levels, industries, and regions.
A few helpful notes before you start:
The survey is 100% anonymous
No names, emails, or identifying details are collected
All rates are listed in USD (international respondents: choose the closest equivalent)
Results will be shared in a MWYJ report in early 2026
Whether you’re freelance, employed, early-career, mid-career, or well-established — writing, editing, or doing a mix — your input helps create a more accurate picture of what’s actually happening in the market.
🗓️ The 2025 Rate Transparency Survey will remain open through Monday, December 29 at 5:00 pm PT.
Complete your survey below if you have not already:
