A Note From the Family

Our son has an opinion on everything from monetary policy to the neighbour's parking, filed in exactly 800 words each time. We seek a match who reads past the headline.

Gems of Wisdom

Craft Specialist

A good op-ed doesn't need a solution. It needs a strong opening line.

Nuance Theorist

I write 'this is not a simple issue' and then treat it very simply for 800 words.

Attribution Advocate

The headline isn't mine. I'd like that on the record, permanently, in every bio.

Discourse Generator

Every op-ed needs a counter-op-ed. I've written both, under two names, twice.

Seeking a Match Who

A partner who reads the byline before the headline and never, ever blames the writer for the headline writer's choices.

Absolute Dealbreakers

Headline-only readers, comment-section screenshots as rebuttals, anyone who says 'well that's just, like, your opinion.'

Endorsements

Wrote a column so balanced both sides were furious. Mission accomplished.

Editor

Predicted an election result with 40% confidence and 100% conviction.

Fellow Columnist

Got quoted by a minister, out of context, and wrote a follow-up column about it.
