This year has been my best as a writer, but no one succeeds in a vacuum. David Wallis, Alissa Quart, Deborah Jian Lee, and Samantha Wekstein have been my greatest supporters. Economic Hardship Reporting Project keeps giving and has never stopped. Pls purchase my newest anthology. In stores now.

My ideal pitch, in this order, is:

1. Sample hed/dek: if you can't figure this out, you have a topic not a story
2. Nut graph: The 5 W's, emphasis on the WHY ARE TELLING THIS STORY NOW (superlatives, global appeal, new take, timely news, etc).
3. Bio/clips

That's it.

I think a lot of us want to naturally blame churches for a lot of issues, and rightly so. But, let’s also look at religious educational institutions?

Where do we get pastors? Politicians? Judges? Etc… who disseminate abusive and toxic ideologies into systems?

It's out! Go pick up your copy now. So proud to have played a part in this beautiful anthology. Happy pub day to all the contributors Economic Hardship Reporting Project

📣TOMORROW!

Help us celebrate the life of our founder Barbara Ehrenreich at Center for Brooklyn History! Emceed by our very own Alissa Quart!

Hear from Cornel West, Jia Tolentino, Linda Tirado & more, including Bernie Sanders via video!

We're heartbroken to share that Lori Teresa Yearwood, a prominent EHRP contributor, has passed away. Lori was a trauma-informed journalist who used her skill and experience to challenge this country's violent treatment of unhoused people

We're so grateful to have worked with her

Really proud of our forthcoming book (out Oct 3!) and this glowing review. So much heart went into this, and the voices of our brilliant contributors sing. Go pre-order your copy today!

Baylor University is now exempt from investigating sexual harassment allegations when doing so conflicts with its religious tenets. What does that mean for the school and its students? Dallas Morning News @report4america dallasnews.com/news/faith/202…
