Pitches wanted (renting) | $150+ per article

COMPANY/PUBLICATION: APARTMENT THERAPY

Deadline: 30 August 2023

Madeline Bilis, Deputy Lifestyle Director of Apartment Therapy, is looking for a writer:

I am looking for a writer to write a ~600 word personal essay about getting comfortable with the idea of never buying a house. It's no surprise that it's becoming harder and harder to buy property, so I'd love to publish a POV from someone who is making peace with being a renter forever. Starting rate is $150. Would love to hear from folks by 8/30 if possible.
