50 calls for journalism/writing pitches (July 3, 2023)
In case you were not aware and are interested in travel writing gigs, I also have (but do not update very regularly) a site dishing out advice on selling travel articles. There are blog posts, books, and a video workshop on ‘the pitch’ - reduced to a paltry $19 for the next 48 hours - which are relevant to several calls for pitches this week.
And don’t forget you can earn a free month (or six) by referring friends to this newsletter using the button here:
