COMPANY/PUBLICATION: CURBSIDE CHRONICLE

Nathan Poppe, Editor at Curbside Chronicle, is looking for pitches:

Have you ever wanted to pitch a freelance story to Curbside Chronicle? I'm always down to read them and bat around ideas. We love human interest stories, features that touch on how social services impact real people and narratives that focus on overlooked history.

I give reasonable edits. Your work will be in a publication that helps folks transitioning out of homelessness make an honest living. It’s a good thing.

CONFIDENTIAL NOTE: Reports indicate that this opportunity will pay $200-$300 per piece. It is recommended that you discuss the rate(s) with the editor upon the acceptance of your pitch.
