The editorial team at Miami New Times is looking for freelancers to contribute to our legacy of no-holds-barred journalism. Applicants should be based in or near the Miami metro area and have impeccable integrity and a working knowledge of online journalism.

Specifically, we're on the hunt for writers to cover the following:

The Miami Music Scene

Our music stories range from profiles to breaking music news to timely and thought-provoking lists. Interest in the South Florida music scene and an encyclopedic knowledge of hip-hop, dance/electronic music, and/or pop are a plus — as is a willingness to engage one-on-one with real players and scenesters at local events and venues.

The Local Tattoo Scene

The Miami area is home to scores of talented tattoo artists, and New Times is committed to helping our readers find just the right artist to ink their vision. Familiarity with tattoo art and technology is a must — like the artists themselves, writers who write about tattooists need to possess a keen eye for detail.

If you think you've got what it takes to tell a New Times story, send writing samples (if you have them), your résumé, and some story ideas to our associate editor, [email protected]. Please type FREELANCE PITCH in the subject line.

And please, no phone calls!
BEFORE YOU GO...
Can you help us continue to share our stories? Since the beginning, Miami New Times has been defined as the free, independent voice of Miami — and we'd like to keep it that way. Our members allow us to continue offering readers access to our incisive coverage of local news, food, and culture with no paywalls.
