If you love to write about the-dailybuzz topics, but find it difficult to break into the freelance writing scene, it can feel like a catch-22. On the one hand, there are tons of lifestyle websites and magazines that are ALWAYS looking for content. But, on the other, if you try to pitch too many different topics to these sites, it’s easy for editors to say no.

To help make things easier, it’s always a good idea to start by targeting the sites that already cover your particular interests and expertise. That way, you’ll be more likely to get a “hell yes!” from the editor!

For example, Paper Magazine is a popular online magazine and site covering pop culture. They’re always looking for op-eds, hot takes on current events, reported features and profiles, and policy analysis. Check out their submission guidelines for more details.
