Soo, after 2.5ish years of Approved Pitches for freelance writers, I'm starting a second newsletter for PR and comms people (agency or in-house) called Placements. All the info here: https://t.co/1DU3vKK2pP #journorequest

[rae 🫠 @RaeWitte]

Approved Pitches will break down the pitch and the process that turn into a published story and paycheck. Each newsletter will include the live story, original pitch and subject line, the relationship with the editor, the rate and context. https://t.co/K5VQUcq7Wi
