Pouring one out for all our fellow writers, editors, and content creators who just got hit with the mass layoffs at Bustle. This industry, you guys...

[Celia Darrough Terrazas @celiadarrough]

Worth noting that to my understanding Bustle no longer has a News or Books team, and much smaller Lifestyle/Entertainment teams. But there are now many incredibly smart women available for you to hire.

[Legion of Women @LegionofWomen]

Send ❤️ to everyone whose jobs were eliminated at Bustle. If you're interested in joining the Legion of Women Writers Slack group, we are here for you! We share resources, job tips, a safe place to chat, etc. Just shoot us a DM!

@HuffPost #Hustlers Keke Palmer has been a multi-hyphenate star for years. Now she's in one of the biggest movies of her career. I interviewed her about her Hollywood hustle, commanding respect at the strip club & being the comic relief. My latest for @byshondaland https://t.co/6riZH8D8Xk

I know we're not supposed to be celebrating #booksmart for some reason, but as a disabled woman I praised it for giving me a character I related to, so there's that.

Any women of color writers out there? Need someone who can write a simple but engaging story about magic and witches with a large cast (10 characters). This is for a 2D action video game.

And I’m looking for perspective that only a woman of color could bring to the table.
