THREE QUESTIONS WITH A COMMISSIONING EDITOR

Just like the famous Boys of Back Street, your favorite feature is back (alright!). While you rock your body, read our Q+A with Tre’vell Anderson, editor-at-large of Xtra Magazine, about what makes a good pitch — including why you need to start asking yourself if your story idea is actually good.

SH: What advice would you give LGBTQIA-identifying writers who are passionate about an LGBTQIA-focused story, but are struggling to place it with an outlet?

TA: Is the story you’re pitching actually good? Sometimes when we’re doing stories about our communities, we can become super invested in an idea that it clouds our perspective. Find yourself a fellow freelancer friend who won’t bullshit you about the idea. See how they respond. Maybe the idea is good and you’re not framing it in the right way, which brings me to…

Are you pitching this story in the right way? Are you pitching a trend piece when you should be pitching a profile or feature, or vice versa? Are you pitching a personal essay when it might be stronger as a reported essay or commentary? Are you pitching something that your clips don’t demonstrate an ability for you to actually accomplish? Make sure that what you are pitching reflects the type of content the site or publication is most likely to publish. And make sure you’re saying why you are the person to write this — this doesn’t need to be a long drawn out explanation. Detail your experience and access quickly. If you can’t get your idea out in a couple grafs, you might not have the grasp you think you have on the topic. 

Lastly, Are you pitching to the right person or outlets? Everybody wants that NYT or Teen Vogue byline, but you’re pitching them a story they’d absolutely never cover, or pitching a story they would cover in a way that doesn’t give the editor that necessary ooh-ahh-ahh sensation. Don’t send a culture pitch to the politics editor. I know this may sound remedial, but the bulk of the pitches I get should be going to someone else. And no, I’m not always going to point you in the right direction because I’m not the 411 lady. It’s your job as the freelancer to make sure you’re pitching the right person — and considering my site has all of our emails publicly listed, there’s no excuse. 

And as I say all of this, you might actually check off all the boxes above and still not be able to place the story. That’s a commentary on the media ecosystem and not you, but you can’t automatically go to the complaining place if you haven’t dotted those i’s and crossed them t’s. The game of a freelancer is about making that pivot; perhaps you need to shelve that idea until something makes the pitch more relevant or timely, or until you build up a working relationship with someone that will better guarantee them seriously considering your idea. Also, spell check your pitches, mamas! 

SH: Is there any particular pitch tip that someone offered you that has stuck with you and helped you in your career?

TA: This isn’t a tip that I was given, but something that I think helped/helps me separate myself from other freelancers: think longer term. While I’ve never been that quick turnaround, hot take type of girl, when I first started freelancing, I noticed that so many of my peers were pitching in response to things that are timely right now. By that I mean, Little Fires Everywhere is streaming, so let’s pitch something about this show now. I set myself apart by thinking weeks and months in advance. I pitch stories that may not be relevant and timely today, but will be in a month when it publishes. For example, I pitched an outlet on a profile of Leiomy Maldonado a month before the first season of Legendary premiered. I conveyed that I was already in contact with the HBO Max team and that I could get other ballroom voices to speak to her brilliance. The editor accepted the pitch because it allowed her to schedule something on their editorial calendar in the future. This approach has been successful for me, and it’s how I prefer to work as an editor. 

SH: For freelancers interested in pitching to Xtra, what advice would you give to make their pitch stand out? Feel free to shoutout any particular examples of good pitches you’ve come across.

TA: It’s the small things that help you stand out. Read the site before you pitch us. And by read the site, I mean read more than just one or two articles. You’ve got to do your research. 

Include a sample headline in your pitch. If you’re reading the site, you’ll know our title conventions and your hed should reflect that. I always suggest that your email subject line should be: “PITCH: Sample Headline.” If it is timely: “TIMELY PITCH: Sample headline.” I try to respond to most emails within 48 hrs, even if I’m rejecting the pitch. You should absolutely wait a couple days, in my eyes, before following up with anyone. If you follow up and don’t get a response, take that as a no. A third follow up would annoy TF out of me. [And] spell my name right. Full stop.
