What We are Looking
For
Gistcity Africa
Link was created to be more than your typical news updates. We want our
articles to give people actionable knowledge and updates. That means the
majority of our articles have at least one takeaway that readers can apply to
their everyday life right away.
But
that doesn’t mean we can’t have fun! Sometimes a good laugh, some celebrity
gossip, or a heartwarming story can offer our readers the perspective or comic
relief their love life needs too.
Do you have
a fresh perspective on an old topic? Great, tell it. Have a hilarious
story you just have to share somewhere? We want to hear it too! Did you read
about an amazing social science study you think that is worth sharing?
Awesome! What we’re really looking for is creativity and great
writing.
