If you’re as crazy without your coffee (or doughnut, or chocolate covered strawberries, or oysters…) as CBS Radio’s Mark Knoller is, why not channel that obsession into a byline for Food Network Magazine?

The pub pays at least $1.50 per word and, although it isn’t easy to break into, editors there are always hungry for fresh takes on everything from food news to kitchen trends.

“We’re a hard pitch. I can probably count on one or two hands how many pitches we’ve accepted since we launched,” said deputy editor Tracy Saelinger. “That said, we welcome ideas from writers, but they just have to be newsy, quirky and fun. We get pitched lots of tired trends that feel like old news.”
