Jennifer Rogers, Lifestyle Editor of Washington Post, is looking for pitches:
Absolutely brutal season for media layoffs. Please message me if you have stories you want to place/ideas to pitch related to home or family. If you have ideas for other types of stories, I can try to route you to the relevant editor at the Post.
Rates depend on a few factors, but I'm not paying less than $600 these days for 1000 words. Email jennifer dot rogers at washpost dot com.
