Pitches wanted (destinations) | ~31 cents per word

COMPANY/PUBLICATION: POINT.ME

Katie Hammel, Content Director at Point.me, is looking for pitches:

Call for pitches: We're looking at launching a destination-focused newsletter at point.me, and I'm looking for pitches from writers with deep expertise in a particular city or region (live in/visit often).

These'll be a mix of inspiration and practical info: why go/what makes the place great, where to stay, what to do, how to get there on points. Unsure of word count; thinking 800-ish and ~$250 payment. Knowledge of points is helpful, but we can write "how to get there" in-house if you don't have it.

Please fill out this form (one form per destination please) and I'll start contacting people next month for initial assignments. After that I'll likely be assigning monthly for this ongoing project.
