Write for us

Lasting News Network welcomes considered pitches about rural heritage, seasonal customs, countryside words, field patterns and familiar objects with a story to tell. We favour specific subjects that can be explained clearly and remain useful beyond a passing moment.

What to pitch

Propose one focused feature, not a broad survey of country life. Tell us the central question, the reader-facing point and what makes the subject worth a closer look. A strong pitch can explain how its scope stays manageable and what context or material would help support it.

The right fit

We welcome accessible, original writing that respects regional and historical differences. A pitch may explain a custom, clarify a rural term, trace the background of an object or help readers notice a feature of the landscape. Avoid unsupported folklore, sweeping claims and pieces that depend on hazardous instructions or professional advice.
