Pitches wanted (design, culture, social trends) | ~75 cents per word

COMPANY/PUBLICATION: LATE CHECKOUT

Daria Smith, Senior Editor at Late Checkout, is looking for pitches:

Writers, trendspotters, culture sleuths — we're opening the pitch inbox at Late Checkout!

We're looking for fresh, timely story ideas that tap into what’s having a moment across design, culture, and social trends. Think smart, stylish, scroll-stopping angles — the kind of stories you’d want to share in a group chat or bookmark for a future trip. Emerging aesthetics, scenes, and microtrends.

Right now, we’re especially interested in pitches for:

• Looky Loo

• Design Crush

• Be Our Guest

We are not looking for:

• Chow Now (restaurant/bar openings)

• Book It (hotel announcement coverage)

• General food & beverage trends or travel roundups

Please read and follow our pitch guidelines here: https://lnkd.in/eXQJw93Q

Only email me at my Late Checkout email, as pitch guidelines state, thanks!
