How to write multiple story pitches

With real life examples

In the newsletter today we are sharing some pitches which have several story ideas listed in them. Some editors quite like a list of ideas to choose between, but this only really works for news stories and SEO led content rather than deep dives and features.

The pitches we are sharing today include a really simple list of headline suggestions and another which is a few explanatory sentences on each story idea. They were for a national newspaper overseas and a UK tech and lifestyle online magazine.

Both pitches lead to several commissions, as the editors liked most of the ideas. Read on to see the pitches and the responses from the commissioning editors.
