New Year Brings Good News for The Awl Writers

The Awl will ring in the new year by paying its writers, co-founder Choire Sicha told Yahoo!’s The Cutline, adding that the site now draws 500,000 monthly visitors. Sicha said:

Each month, we plan to lop off some portion of our income and share that money equally among the month’s writers. Paying writers has been a top priority since day one. We talked quite a bit about models of pay, and about what models were “right” and what were “expedient.”
