Pitches wanted (sex, dating, relationships) | $200-$250 per article

COMPANY/PUBLICATION: POPSUGAR

Deadline: 21 February 2024

Taylor Andrews, Wellness Editor at PopSugar, is looking for pitches:

I'm looking to commission an article from a writer who has used a professional matchmaker and is willing to write about their experience doing so. Please email me at taylor.andrews@voxmedia.com with your experience. Pay is $250. The writer should reach out by Wednesday, 2/21.

I'm also looking to connect with writers who are single and enjoy writing about love, sex, dating, and relationships — maybe through the lens of personal essays or "I Tried It" pieces. Please reach out with clips and your experience to taylor.andrews@voxmedia.com by Wednesday, 2/21. Pay varies but mainly the $200 range.

CONTACT INFORMATION (please do not share the email address publicly):
