Contributing Writer

Exciting news for my writer friends: We’re broadening our editorial coverage on Real Simple and looking to grow our roster of contributors! We’re seeking writers who can pitch, report, and write digital features across culture, finance, and relationships:

Culture: Articles on what we’re reading, watching, or seeing online—and why it’s resonating beyond the moment.

Relationships: Raw, intimate essays on experiences we rarely say out loud—from relationship shifts to personal struggles and big life decisions.

Money: Stories with expert-backed advice to help women make smarter financial decisions and first-person accounts about what life really costs—from major milestones to everyday choices, plus the lessons and regrets that come with them.

First-Person Narratives: Essays from women across life stages sharing the rules, mantras, and non-negotiables shaping their careers and lives. Also, voicey, opinion-based essays touching on zeitgesty topics affecting women today.

If you’re interested in pitching, please fill out this form [click apply]. We’ll be in touch if there’s a fit to discuss next steps, rates, and process. Thank you!
