Lively Weekend Stories

Write for us

We welcome pitches about the ways people spend, shape and remember their weekends. A strong proposal has a clear subject, a fresh angle and a useful idea for readers, without relying on expensive plans or specialist expertise.

Ideas we welcome

Pitch a piece about a small adventure, a creative hour, a shared pastime, a weekend ritual or the craft of telling a personal story. We are especially interested in ideas that are evergreen, specific and adaptable to different readers rather than tied to a single event or place.

What to include

Explain the proposed piece in a few sentences: what it will cover, what makes the angle distinctive and what a reader will take away. Mention any sources or firsthand experience the idea depends on, and flag details that may vary by location or circumstance.

Send a proposal

Send pitches through the Contact page and choose the editorial question option. Please propose the idea before drafting a full article; a submission is not a promise of publication, and we will consider it for fit, clarity and originality.

Our point of view

A good weekend is a story you help shape

Not every day off needs a grand plan. A curious walk, a shared game or an hour spent making something can be enough to give it a beginning, a middle and a detail worth carrying into the week.
