This list gives you a direct link to editors who are looking for writers to cover a specific story/beat/angle. These opportunities pay more than your average writing project and you’ll end up with a byline on the publication’s website, which is great for building your portfolio! Here’s a look at the calls we rounded up this week…
Bryce is looking to bring on 1-2 more regular commerce writers at Today’s Parent. Writers must have shopping content experience and ideally have the capacity to create 1-2 robust pieces per week. Send samples to bryce.gruber@stjoseph.com
Looking for stories on rural America, reported and opinion, covering many topics but two in particular this spring: libraries and transportation. Pitches can be sent to editorial@barnraisingmedia.com
$200 for Opinion Pieces at Barn Raising

Pitch here.
