(Paid) The Fence | Feature writers! The Fence is commissioning for Issue 22, and they’re looking for some new blood in their Facts and Features slots. Have you got a stone-cold killer of a pitch in your back pocket? Pitch guide here. Pay is not specified, but they “pay fairly and pre-publication for all work.” Send pitches to [email protected]

(Paid) Narratively | Narratively’s new collab with Creative Nonfiction explores the heart from all angles: your epic heartbreak, what you’ve done for love or an incredible life-saving procedure involving that organ in your chest. They want your best pitches around the heart and love: tales about unimaginable breakups and heartache, the epic lengths you’ve gone to for romance, stories about pig heart transplants in humans or a shocking tale of organ-donor bribery, betrayal and intrigue. These can be first-person or reported pieces, and they should have epic, unexpected, immersive, cinematic storytelling and compelling narrative arcs. Pay wasn’t given, but Narratively “pays for all stories.” Submission deadline is September 8. Submission guide and submit here
