Erin Griffith, who writes the Term Sheet newsletter for Fortune, is joining Wired magazine as a senior writer.

Her first day is Sept. 11. She will be based in Wired’s New York office.

Griffith writes, “This the last week I’ll be writing Term Sheet. I’m joining Wired next month to do a lot more of what I was doing before I took over this newsletter – in-depth news reporting, analysis, columns, and feature stories.

“As Medium cliché goes, it was a difficult decision. Holy sh-t was it a difficult decision. Readers, you’ve been an incredible audience. I don’t think I’ll ever be able to replicate the hit of adrenaline I get every morning when your responses begin pouring into my inbox. But changing things up was the right thing for me, blah blah, you get it. More on that Friday, which is my last day at Fortune.

“Term Sheet and Fortune will continue to keep you all informed of the latest deals, funding announcements, firm news, and people moves. More on that later this week, too.”

“Erin is smart, she’s sourced, and she’s a terrific writer,” said Wired editor Nicholas Thompson in a statement. “We look forward to her breaking news from the New York tech world, and Silicon Valley too.”
