> 🎬 **Love writing about movies & TV? Turning that passion into *paid* work is tough. I get it**.


 


> **After digging around, here are **5 legit sites that actually PAY freelance writers** for film/TV content (not just exposure!)**:

>


> 1. **ScreenRant:**

They occasionally need TV, movie, and gaming writers. ScreenRant usually requires that you commit to doing a certain number of articles per month, so it can be steady work. The opportunity is open worldwide.


They do prefer if you've had some experience writing for the web. The pay is not listed, but old job posts I've found online indicate it's pay per post.


> 2. **MovieWeb:**

If you’re passionate about movies and TV and want a straightforward way to get paid for writing, MovieWeb is an option you may want to consider. They're always looking for freelance writers to contribute news, reviews, and opinion pieces about films, streaming, and entertainment industry trends.


So, if you can craft well-researched, engaging articles with a strong voice and unique perspective, you should apply!


Payment rates are not listed on their website, but freelancers have reported the pay is per article.



> 3. **Cineaste:**

This is a quarterly magazine focused on cinema. They consider freelance submissions that, if accepted, will be either published in their print magazine or online.


Their current rates for accepted submissions are $18 for short take reviews, $36 for book or DVD reviews, $45 for film reviews, and $90 for feature articles or feature interviews.


> 4. **Listverse:**

If you enjoy writing list-based articles about movies, TV, and pop culture, Listverse is an option to submit that kind of content (as well as almost any other type of list).


They specialize in Top 10-style articles across a variety of topics, including film history, TV shows, behind-the-scenes movie facts, and more.


Listverse is always looking for entertaining, original, well-researched, and unique lists rather than generic content. Some examples of what they publish include:


The catch here is that getting your list accepted for publication is no guarantee. But if it is, they will send you $100 via Paypal.



> 5. **Comic Book Resources (CBR):**

CBR is looking for writers to help source, brainstorm, produce, self-edit and publish original new content for their knowledgeable audience.



> Reality Check: Entertainment writing is SUPER competitive. Rates can be lower, gigs irregular. Diversifying your skills helps!

>

> Why share this? Because finding *real* paid gigs amongst the "for exposure" posts is exhausting. Hope this saves someone time! ✨

>

> P.S. Know any other paying sites? Drop them below! 👇

>


In Conclusion

I tried to make a longer list, but when you search online for these types of writing gigs, there are so many that are unpaid!


And while some people are fine with those types of opportunities for the sake of building up a portfolio, I just prefer to list paid positions here.

The consequences of not paying Zakat!

  The consequences of not paying Zakat! All the decrees of Allah are for the universal welfare of man. Every command and prohibition of Allah Ta'ala has two types of results or consequences. An afterlife will be found and that is the key. The consequences of disobeying His orders are still felt today, though many times people do not realize it. Consequences of not paying Zakat: First of all: Since the wealth of the rich has the right of the poor and destitute, if Zakat is not paidProperty remains the property of others. As a result it is not holy. Allah does not bless impure wealth and the possessor of that wealth is deprived of Allah's mercy. Not only that, the people who do not pay Zakat or Sadaqah, Allah sends worldly punishments like drought and famine on them. The Prophet (PBUH) said, "If a community refuses to give Zakat, Allah punishes them with famine" (Tabarani). Secondly:Rasulullah (SAW) said, "Whoever gives zakat in the hope of reward, there...
