Elisabeth Sherman, Associate Editor at Parents, is looking for pitches:
To anyone who experienced a lay off at Conde Nast or Vox, please reach out. I don't typically take freelance stories at Parents but can always look over a pitch in case it's a fit or pass it on to the right person + always looking for writers to whom I can assign stories.
Find me at elisabeth.sherman@dotdashmdp.com
Rate: $250 but note that this is not a free for all call for pitches. I rarely accept freelance pitches just to be transparent.
