50 calls for journalism/writing pitches (October 16, 2023)
Today felt like winter. Refrigerated wind, chilled grey skies, cheeks and lips that seem to crinkle in the dry air. The darkness hasn’t come yet, that sombre, black wintry shadow that falls one week and doesn’t lift for months. My memories come coated with the sugar of nostalgia - even the punishing early morning runs at school through fields and streets and wet icy roads of black, even remembering the chapped hands, bleeding cracked flesh, and shouts through the pitch fragile air to ‘shut yurr mouth and move yurr arse’ bring a smile. As we slowly wade deeper into winter’s cold stomach, the kids plead for snow and the world pulls the covers higher.
Calls below.
