Shannon Liao, Deputy Gaming Editor at Inverse, is looking for pitches:
I'm taking freelance pitches about the craft or psychology of video games. Email: shannon@inverse.com . Rates start at $300 for a good reported piece.
To add onto this, please try to include a news peg, some reason why your story matters now and should be told soon. Even if it's writing about an older game, there should be a reason why we're still thinking about it today.
Deadline: Never!
