COMPANY/PUBLICATION: PRIDE SOURCE

Chris Azzopardi, Editorial Director of Pride Source, is looking for pitches:

Queer writers, especially queer BIPOC writers—I'm looking for pitches for our upcoming Sex Issue. Aiming to make this as sexy/sex-positive as possible, so send your pitches my way asap. We pay! (Will need copy in the next couple of weeks.)

Rates start at $100 and go up to $250, depending on scope of story. Our pitch guide here: https://pridesource.com/pitching-a-story/

Also noting that I accept pitches ANY DAY about ANYTHING that is queer, first and foremost, and it helps if there's a Michigan angle/connection or if the story can be connected to Michigan in some clear way.
