Professional Development Month – Virtual Pitch Slam 2

June 23, 2020 @ 7:00 pm - 8:00 pm

Some of DC’s finest editors will share what stories they’re looking for and give advice for how to pitch their publication with a Q&A portion to follow during which you can ask general questions about pitching. Optional: You are encouraged to prepare a pitch that can be presented in 90 seconds, after which you’ll get feedback on it from the panel. Note: this session will not be recorded and attendees are expected to keep others’ pitches confidential.

Editors joining the panel:

Nsikan Akpan, a science editor at National Geographic.

Caryl-Sue Micalizio, managing editor at Eos, “a source for news and perspectives about Earth and space science.” Eos is published by the AGU.

Torie Bosch, the editor of Future Tense, “a project of Slate, New America, and Arizona State that looks at the implications of new technologies.”
