Michael Kelly, Founder of Shelfy, is looking for pitches:
Today we're launching Shelfy Editorial. As the digital media decline continues, we're carving out a refuge for thoughtful criticism that inspires intentional engagement with culture and each other.
We need a positive space for thoughtful cultural discussions now more than ever. If you’re a culture lover looking for honest, insightful criticism, we think you’ll like what we have in store at Shelfy.
And if you’re a writer looking for a new home, we're now accepting pitches. Rates start at $0.50/word.

TO HELP YOU CRAFT YOUR PITCH:
Learn more about the publication: Shelfy Editorial brings post-metrics thesis to the forefront of cultural criticism. It is a platform where culture is dissected and celebrated through the lens of its long-term resonance rather than short-term relevance. Expect features on everything from overlooked music scenes and underrepresented artists, to broader cultural trends and undercurrents. More information here.
Review the submission guidelines here. Note that these are the publication's general guidelines to help you refine your pitch. You must still follow the editor's specific instructions above.
Check out our collection of pitch excerpts on this page and find more sample pitches at The Open Notebook and at SuccessfulPitches.com.
Do not forget to end your pitch with (1) a short introduction about yourself; (2) a few lines highlighting your writing experience, relevant credentials and publication credits; and (3) links to your strongest work or portfolio, and online profile.
