1️⃣ Calls to Pitch

($750 - $1,500) Written in Air | Dennis is taking pitches for a non-English language audio piece for something he’s curating later this year. It should be 10-15 minutes long and a narrative doc (but open to oddities or sound forward essays). Would if love it's from outside of NA or EU. Fee based on the project, but likely somewhere in the $750 - $1,500 USD range. UPDATE: Pitch deadline is June 14. Send pitches to [email protected]

($600+) BBC Travel | Eva is open for pitches again at the SpeciaList! She’s looking for 1) "Cool" (weather) city guides for summer; 2) Outdoor adventure guides for trending cities. And she’s always looking for fun city guides with cool, timely angles in general. SpeciaList is now open to food stories again (but please, still no craft beer). Check out Eva’s Twitter thread for more info. Send pitches to [email protected]

($500 - $600) Popular Mechanics | Mike is looking for a freelance A/V writer to handle some commerce work for Popular Mechanics. Pressing need for someone who has tested outdoor speakers in the past, but he needs a person or two for various types of speakers, headphones, TVs, and possibly projectors throughout the year. Rates vary depending on the writer's experience and the amount of work needed for an update. He typically offers $500-$600 for a new story or a ground-up rewrite. Get in touch by the end of this week (May 31) if interested. Send clips to [email protected]

(~ $480 / 40k Rupees) The Plank | Samarth has a list of story ideas to commission and wants to give them to reporters who know how to get information out from anywhere. Who can get inside a world, find sources, documents, data, and whatever else it takes to tell a fair and accurate story. At The Plank, they’re most interested in questions-led journalism—where the story is discovered in the process of reporting. This requires curious, tenacious, open-minded reporters who can stay on a story for a while to pull off a great magazine piece. If this sounds like you, and you work freelance, and you have the bandwidth to take on a (slightly ambitious) reporting project, then get in touch. They pay a flat fee of 40k Rupees or ~$480 USD per story. Email [email protected]

($250) Black Women Radicals | Black Women Radicals is celebrating “50 Years of the Combahee River Collective” with a call for abstracts for a special issue of their blog, VOICES IN MOVEMENT. They welcome essays and creative non-fiction articles only. Submission guide here. Submission deadline is June 24. Submit abstracts here
