Naureen Khan, Features and Projects Editor at Yahoo News, is looking for pitches:
I have a new gig as features and projects editor for Yahoo News.
And I’m commissioning again! I’m on the hunt for great lifestyle and culture coverage — reported features and essays, stories that unearth or explain trends about the way we live now, and savvy cultural analysis. If we haven’t worked together before, send me a pitch that shows me a little of your writing style. naureen.khan@yahooinc.com
P.S. Also putting together a package on the theme of HOLIDAY DISASTERS. E-mail for more details!
