to write for Slate—that’s great! If you haven’t worked with us before, here are a few pointers on how to craft a pitch and capture our attention. The best editors to contact for each section are listed at the bottom of this page.</p> <p class="slate-paragraph slate-graf" data-word-count="22" data-uri="slate.com/_components/slate-paragraph/instances/cjhwge0ff00143i5tlynr54s5@published" ><strong>Do </strong>read Slate to get a sense of the magazine’s voice and examples of pieces that have been done in a similar vein.</p> <p class="slate-paragraph slate-graf" data-word-count="59" data-uri="slate.com/_components/slate-paragraph/instances/cjhwge0dg00083i5t3cifpf42@published" ><strong>Do </strong>Google your idea. It may seem like a no-brainer, but often we reject a pitch because the writer’s argument doesn’t feel fresh or original. A brief search for other articles on your proposed subject can go a long way to figuring out what’s been written about it here or elsewhere, so you can avoid pitching something that feels familiar.</p> <p class="slate-paragraph slate-graf" data-word-count="80" data-uri="slate.com/_components/slate-paragraph/instances/cjhwge0dj00093i5tvdu37agh@published" ><strong>Do </strong>make a strong argument if you are pitching opinion and analysis. Slate is known for surprising arguments. The best pitches are clear and concise with just enough detail. You don’t need to have answers to all the points your piece might raise, but we do like to know that you’ve done a bit of research to help formulate your pitch. We particularly appreciate ideas that don’t take conventional or partisan wisdom for granted or assume the audience shares their beliefs.</p> <p class="slate-paragraph slate-graf" data-word-count="27" data-uri="slate.com/_components/slate-paragraph/instances/cktazy8zc00003h6cdw3qftlo@published" ><strong>Do </strong>pitch reported pieces and dispatches. Much of the above still applies.

I’ve created a spreadsheet that categorizes the last 70 years of action films and the names of the hero characters. Over a third of all action film stars in the 700 films I’ve collected start with the letter J. I’ve then been able to see how this trend has changed over time and how J names characters fair in comparison to box office success. I plan to contact various experts in the field of name studies to have a better understanding of why these particular names are so repetitively used by Hollywood writers and authors. </p><br><p>I read Slate articles often and listen to the Culture Gabfest fairly religiously and think the slightly obsessive, detailed, and light-hearted tone would fit with Slate. My research reminded me of this recent article on <a href="https://slate.com/culture/2022/10/taylor-swift-midnights-anti-hero-video-pen-photos.html">why Taylor Swift holds her pen the way she does</a>.</p><p>I am a writer mostly focused on popular culture, data and technology. You can see my recently published book <a href="https://www.jbe-books.com/products/the-leaked-recipes-cookbook-by-demetria-glace">here</a>. </p><br><p>Do you think this story on J-named action stars would be a good fit with Slate?</p></div> </blockquote> <h3 class="subhead subhead--none" data-uri="slate.com/_components/subhead/instances/cjhwge0g100173i5tsk51teld@published" > <div class="subhead__marker"> </div> Culture </h3> <p class="slate-paragraph slate-graf" data-word-count="6" data-uri="slate.com/_components/slate-paragraph/instances/cjhwge0eb000r3i5tanr0jbjt@published" >Forrest Wickman (movies, music, features)<br /> <a href="mailto:forrest.wickman@slate.com"><strong>forrest.wickman@slate.com</strong></a></p> <p class="slate-paragraph slate-graf" data-word-count="6" data-uri="slate.com/_components/slate-paragraph/instances/cjhwge0e0000e3i5t74g372f4@published" >Jenny G.
