A Safe Space to Binge on Magazines
This week’s opportunities are an invitation to slow down, think deeper, and submit work that carries voice. These editors are seeking stories rooted in lived experience, creative risk, and thoughtful interrogation of food, power, and change. If you’ve been holding a piece that feels personal and necessary, this is your signal.
Consider this a practical roadmap for approaching the New York Times with intention, insight, and a long game in mind.
As always, I identify editors actively looking for pitches, to quiet editorial shifts, to early access event opportunities tied to award season; I also share a HOW TO Guide on Op-Eds if you want to get some writing done this slow down week.
From editors actively seeking great pitches, to notable editorial moves shaping the media landscape, to the award-season events opening up their credentialing — consider this your recap AND tune-up before the industry’s busiest season begins.
We’re also gearing up for our first Stylists Suite Zoom call in January 2026, with the release of the Big Fat Media Guide 2026 Edition. Let's have strong finish and a stronger start.
