Pitches Wanted (Food, Drink, Cannabis) (Worldwide) | $350 to $500+ per article

Rosin Saez, Senior Editor of Food and Drink at Thrillist, is looking for pitches: Attention writers: I’d love to field some rad/fun/weird/cool food and drink pitches for Q1! Stories with a national interest—we’ve got local teams who cover city-focused stories—be them trends, features, explainers, roundups. Thrillist doesn’t have a pitch guide, but happy to workshop ideas.
- My email (preferred) address is rosin.saez@voxmedia.com. Rates are flexible and can range from $350 to $500+
