Quick health update + open positions
Both last week and this week saw no Weekly Dispatch, and unfortunately, it’s been a simple case of bad luck and a need to recover
Hi Guys, Julien here 👋
I already made a mid-week announcement on twitter regarding this, half-way through my ongoing sick-leave, but I figured it made a lot of sense to let you guys know directly here too!
Unfortunately, as you realised, there was no Weekly Dispatch last week, and unfortunately, there will also be no Weekly Dispatch this week.
The simple reason for this: I got hit with two pretty rough illnesses at the same time (Flu and Tonsillitis), so I’m having to actually rest for once in my life and try not to do any work.
While I continue on with my recovery, I will have to ask you for a little patience, and for a few of you interested people, present a few openings as I look for support in developing this favourite publication of yours.
Looking for Contributors
As previously highlighted, I know that you guys are looking for more content, and I want to help provide this to you.
It’s why I’ve decided to open up contributor applications for those of you who want to write for The French Dispatch and contribute your knowledge and expertise. Just click on the button below and fill out the form!
Volunteering for The French Dispatch
With the amount of work required to keep this going, I’m still looking for some extra help to manage the processes and some of the extra work with developing The French Dispatch.
Currently, the positions I’m looking for are:
Volunteer Deputy Editor - France & Europe
Volunteer Social Media Manager
Content enhancers
Unfortunately, as much as I hate this fact, I can’t officially hire anybody for these positions. Still, for those who help, I would be more than happy to offer a free paid subscription and potentially a spot on the team in future if everything works out.
However, if you’re interested and want to apply/have a conversation, you can look at our open positions page here or just respond to this email.
