LoftLife magazine, a quarterly shelter and lifestyle publication, seeks experienced writers to submit stories for our back page—“My Downtown.” We want to hear about a memory or a reflection on a space, moment, place, monument, or institution that reminds you why you still call your U.S. metropolitan city “home.” Please submit an article with a strong voice, savvy grammar skills, and a plethora of descriptive and sensory details. We would appreciate an essay that is kept to a maximum of 450 words. Chosen pieces will receive $250 and publication in our print magazine. Check out the look and feel of our magazine at loftlifemag.com, “the loftstyle guide to life in the city.” Email your Word document submissions as an attachment to Kyra Shapurji at ks@loftlifemag.com with the subject line of “My Downtown.”

If you’re the writer we’re looking for:

* You’re mesmerised by reading NonToxin.com and are inspired to write similar posts in your own unique style.

* You have a passion for collecting stories and quotes, and sharing these with the world.

We’re particularly looking for biography writers to tell inspiring life stories of little-known people.

Pay is $15 per post for 400-1,200 words. Quality, not quantity, will grab our attention.

Submit a post outline, including the stories you’ll tell and an Action Summary to david.masters@yahoo.co.uk.
