How to work with us…
PULP Newsmagazine accepts tips, comments, photos and stories in various forms. We’re stronger with you as a partner, so send us a tip or an opinion or a photo. Our platforms are growing and our reach is expanding. Are you coming with us?
If you’re a freelancer
We accept pitches from freelancers who are serious about storytelling. Pitches must be well-researched ideas, complete ideas with potential sources, anticipated length, photo and graphic suggestions.
Our print news magazine, on stands each month, includes feature stories and photo essays that tell the stories of the region. We love profiles, news and culture features that go beyond the the ‘five Ws.’ We want stories that explain impact, explore the human condition as it relates to our readers and shows an unexamined idea, subject or issue. From band profiles to in-depth news features, pitches to PULP should be stories you won’t find anywhere else.
If you’re not familiar with the stories PULP does, please take a look around our website and pick up a copy of our paper. Send pitches to editor@pueblopulp.com with ‘article pitch’ in the subject.
Work with us on social media
Take over our Instagram: We want exceptional, talented photographers to share their work with our followers. You needn’t be a professional, just have great photos that tell a story.
Submit your photo essay of 5–10 photos that explore a topic in the region. Underground music venues? Great. The average week in a small town cafe? We’re into it. Include a title for your dispatch. Each photo should have a cutline.
We’re also going to need your Instagram handle to cross promote your work.
Instagram dispatches may translate into a feature in print, but is not guaranteed.
