We're Looking (For Writers): Pitch Your Writing to the Grindr Editorial Team
We’re inviting writers who can capture Grindr’s place in the world—whether it’s a comedic hookup debacle, a surprisingly sweet love story, or a cheeky peek at how we shape our identities through our phones. Think of Grindr as the global gayborhood in your pocket, and you’re reporting on its highs, lows, and everything in between.
What We’re After
We want bold, personal takes—stories that go beyond the usual “app success” or “awkward date” tropes. Lay out the good, the bad, and the just-plain-strange. Give us your lived experiences, the cultural moments you can wax poetic about, and the real connections (or near-misses) people find through Grindr.
We also want think pieces on culture, relationships, and sex that push the conversation forward. Whether you’re exploring generational divides in a piece like “No, I Don’t Have Snapchat: A Manifesto for Aging Gays” or dissecting modern hookup etiquette, we want your angle—bold, smart, and distinctly you.
Why Write for Us?
- Your Voice Matters: Raw honesty, a dash of humor, maybe even a little spice—bring it on.
- Room to Experiment: Think confessional essays, thoughtful commentary, or offbeat narratives.
- Fair Compensation: We pay based on factors like length, depth, and your experience level. Once we accept your pitch, we’ll talk details.
Ready to Pitch?
Check our submission link for the latest topics we’re focusing on. If none spark your interest, pitch something totally unexpected. As long as it’s true to you and ties back to Grindr’s cultural impact, we want to see it.
Intrigued? Send us your best.
