Yes this is a real, bona fide writing job from a proper publishing company who will pay you in actual money and not just vague whiffly promises of "promotional value".
Easy Living magazine are advertising for a sex columnist. The column can be anonymous, so your mother doesn't have to read about your penchant for nipple tassles. It's planned to run in the magazine for at least a year. Journalists in their thirties and forties may apply.
So what's the catch?
You need to be married /in a relationship for at least five years and have "at least two" small children.
So, parent of small children with enough of a sex life to write about. For a year.
*drums fingers*
No, I don't know anybody, do you?
Actually I can think of a few bloggers who could go for it, but they might object to the anonymous bit. Bloggers like to do it, tweet it, then display the evidence on Instagram.
Anyway, if you think you are that elusive parent of small children with an active enough sex life to fill twelve columns, and the ability to write well about it, here are the details - you'll have to scroll down a bit, but it's there. At least it would make being on deadline a lot more fun.





Excellent stuff - I'll now apply! Thanks for the heads up!

good luck @mammasaurus
@Helen - just get an alarm set to wake you up at random times of the night, so you're too tired for shenanigans. The effect is pretty much the same.

Wow, that would be pretty cool. But I'm not a journalist. I wonder if my blog counts as published work...?!

Well I guess that depends on the blog Dilly. I do know that quite a few bloggers have applied for this, so if you think you can do it then why not?

I agree with most of the points you make within this artcle...!
