We’re seeking pitches for a Black family focused community. We’re looking for reported essays and reported features only. Keep reading
Black writers, if you have stories about kids taking risks, unique takes on step-parenting that go against the grain, losing friendships after divorce or kids, thoughts on being “friends” with your kids, hit us up.
Dads, queer parents, disabled parents, if you don’t want to just cover identity, email us!
Pitch your story ideas. Rates range from $250 to $400+ depending.
First, give me the working headline in the subject line. Be sure to lead with PITCH and a colon first so your email doesn’t get buried.
HOW TO PITCH US
I love to see how writers are gonna write. Give me a bit of that in the first couple of sentences. Feeling fancy? Write the first couple of sentences as the lede of the piece you’re proposing.
Next, what are you going to report on? Make sure it’s also clear here why this story you’re proposing is important. What’s the takeaway?
How are you going to tackle the reporting? Link me to a study, tell me what type of sources you have in mind, etc.
Now, I got this far, so I want to know about you! Who are you and what have you done before? Give me the receipts. Clips or website/portfolio, please.
