TransLash Media is a U.S-based but globally recognized trans-led nonprofit news organization and digital community committed to supporting TGNC (trans and gender nonconforming) people. The TLM website is open to new writers, but editor Gabrielle is also specifically looking for pitches for its personal essay and journalism platform, News & Narrative, related to books & travel. She would also love to know more about what you’re reading and how it has inspired or uplifted you. Payment is a flat rate of $350 US.
More generally, TLM are always ready to consider pitches about government policy, bodily autonomy, community, identity and history, and note that they collaborate with diverse TGNC communities worldwide. Required is a clear voice expressed through writing that ‘feels like you’, a dynamic angle – consider what makes your story special – and sharp writing to convey what you want to say in around 750-1,000 words.
