are you an internet/ pop culture writer who wants to be published?
let me publish you!!! lending culture vulture out to writers who want a platform 𓆩♡𓆪
My ANGELS!!!
Over the past five years or so of running Shit You Should Care About, I’ve realised that my favourite part of this whole thing is getting to find/ platform/ publish writers that have something to say!
Some of my faves recently:
The question I get asked the most (espesh from budding young writers is) ‘how do I get started?’ or ‘how do I get my voice out there?’ and honestly - especially with the state of journalism right now - it’s HARD!
But let me help 𓆩♡𓆪
If you’re a pop culture/ internet writer and you feel like you’ve got something to say that fits with our culture vulture vibe, send me a draft and I’ll see what I can do.
At the same time, I’m opening up paid subscriptions - not because I will be putting anything behind a paywall (don’t worry) but to cover the time I assume I’m going to spend editing/ publishing pieces here and growing this audience so that there are more eyes on your work!
If you’re interested in being published, reply to this email with a pitch and a draft (at least of the intro and an outline of what else you want to say!)
This is amazing!!! I’ve had an idea i’ve been thinking about and excited to try draft/pitch it!!
Me! The gay man version of Carrie Bradshaw(? you tell me?) of my small town. Samantha Jones to my partner of 9 years or more. Mr. Big around town as a firefighter, when I’m feeling up to it mentally and physically. Miranda Hobbes to my two kids. Artfully curating my gallery of sh*t here like I’m Charlotte York.

Love music instead of (Jimmy Choo) shoes and singer-songwriters instead of high-end fashion designers:
