"Ask a Journalist": Pitch for Success with The OpEd Project

October 20th, 5:00-5:45 EST

Learn how to capture an editor’s attention by crafting an irresistible pitch.

This is a live 45-minute session with a Master Editor who will review The OpEd Project’s tried and true “Pitch to Win” strategy, live-edit pitches (chosen from among those you submit), make recommendations for improvements, and answer your questions about everything from the best opening line to pitching etiquette. Whether or not your pitch is selected, you will get extremely valuable insights into how a professional editor/journalist works and thinks about pitching, that will be immediately applicable.

To continue to fulfill our mission, we are offering this resource to all human beings across all identities and positions, and regardless of means, on a "pay what you can" model, for fast and immediate tips on amplifying and elevating your ideas and voice. An email with a link and password to the session will be sent upon completion of registration.
