Are you a lifestyle writer who loves going out and experiencing the best of live entertainment -- whether it be a concert, play, food tour, or film festival? Do you have a knack for helping people discover new and exciting things to do? Can you write an intriguing headline AND a compelling story that fulfills its promise? If so, we’d love to see a portfolio of your best work.

  • Pitch story ideas and craft headlines that grab the attention of live-entertainment enthusiasts
  • Accept and learn from feedback and edits
  • Source images for your stories from our approved libraries as well as independently search the web for free commercial-use images that adhere to our visual style
