Pitches wanted (veteran, military content) | $250+ per article

FREELANCERS: We just revamped our freelance system and dramatically increased our budget. That means I'm looking to spend some money on good reporting. Here's what I'm looking for:
We want thoughtful, deep reporting on service members and veterans and the issues that impact their lives and are willing to pay accordingly. That could be investigative work on harms, it could be features revealing aspects of military life that aren't talked about often.
I'm not looking for quick dailies, and because the time commitment for the work will vary, I'm not setting a fixed rate. We'll pay for pieces according to the work involved. The floor on this is about $250, but I anticipate most stories will be much higher than that.
I'd add that we're putting a heavy emphasis on storytelling (yes I read that Niemanlab piece, but calling it "good writing" just sounds dismissive). We're happy to experiment with different styles of writing. So come with a pitch and let's see what we can do.
