Chicago-based marketing and communications agency M. Harris & Co., run by former business journalist Melissa Harris, has launched a paid newsletter about better writing.
“Get Me Rewrite” costs $7 a month, or $60 a year.
Twice a week, M. Harris & Co.’s writers — former Chicago Tribune metro editor Mark Jacob, former Los Angeles Times investigative reporter Ralph Frammolino and former employee No. 1 at Cards Against Humanity Jenn Bane — target text that deserves to be skewered, and shows readers how it should have been written.
From time to time, the newsletter will also have prominent guest writers, such as the New York Times’ Gretchen Reynolds, who wrote about her writing pet peeves Monday.
M. Harris is soliciting guest writers, and it is also offering up a few free posts to readers from time to time, such as In our DNA and Make it savory.
