Fortunately Magazine has shared a call for pitches: “Partnerships, parleys, polycules—In Issue 02, we explore forms of communal exchange and transfers for unprecedented times and uncertain futures. This issue probes how institutions influence our daily transactions, which range from the subtle to the explicit: a look across the room, a heated dialogue between conspirators, or the frenzy of the market. FAIR considers ways for ideas, commodities, and resources to flow from production to consumption in systems that prioritize collective well-being over accumulation through pragmatic or even deviant means." $300+, deadline March 17th.
Motley Bloom is looking for a seasoned travel writer to write a 1000-word piece on why hotels matter for neurodivergent travelers. More than just a roundup, we want to discuss the importance of finding the right hotel and the factors to consider when booking. We'd also like firsthand recommendations of 4-6 hotels. Rate is $500 with the potential for future articles. Writers must have lived experience with neurodivergence. Send pitches to pitch@motley-bloom.com. Include a bio and 2-3 relevant clips.
