Mistresses, pets and quirky relationships

Friday, June 25th, 2010

Every day we’re inundated with requests from newspapers and magazines, which can earn high cash rewards.  They can also give you the satisfaction of seeing your story in print.

It’s one thing thinking “Can I sell my story?” It’s quite another actually getting it done. And that’s where we are here to help.  You can email us at info@sellthatstory.com

At the moment we have newspapers and magazines offering high prices for:

* A mistress who can talk about her affair with a married man. Perhaps the relationship ended badly, or he wasn’t the man you thought he was, or perhaps he had a high profile – always popular with magazines – and wouldn’t take the risk.  Mistresses are always seen as the “other woman” but you can tell your side of the story and earn money for your time, as well as getting satisfaction that you can put out your version of the truth.

* Did you meet your partner under unusual, funny, quirky or positively strange circumstances? Then let us know.  Don’t just wonder “Could I sell my story?” Let us do it for you.

* Do you have daft stories about your pets? The papers love them, and they are a fun way to make money.

* Amid the doom and gloom of the recession, the papers are all keen to hear happy, funny heart-warming tales. So if you have one and are thinking “Could I sell my story?” then get in touch and we’ll do it for you!

How many partners?

Tuesday, March 16th, 2010

A national newspaper is looking to interview a woman in her early 20s who’s had a lot more sexual partners than her mum.

 The mother was probably a child of the Swinging 60s, but a poll has shown that the majority of women of that generation probably only had a couple of partners before  the age of 24. 

Today’s early 20-somethings have had nearly five times that number.  Both would need to be photographed and talk about their attitudes to sex.

Addicted to high heels?

Monday, February 15th, 2010

high-heelsEveryone has a story to sell, and every week we deal with magazines, newspapers and even TV companies.

These are top of their WANTED lists this week:

♦ Under-13s addicted to wearing high heels, or who shop for heels with their mum.

A researcher from a TV company is looking at the effect wearing high heels are having on young people’s feet. “I’m looking for under-13s who are already wearing heels,” she said, “as well as anyone under 16 who has had a bad accident while wearing heels that has caused them permanent damage or to have to have an operation.”

♦ A weekly magazine wants a woman in her 20s who had cosmetic surgery to win back her ex-boyfriend. She’ll get paid, plus a photo shoot with hair, make-up and styling.

♦ A Sunday newspaper supplement is looking for a woman who was a surrogate for her own daughter and a mum who donated an organ to her own daughter.

For their Mothers’ Day issue they want:

1. A woman who was a surrogate for her own daughter or a woman who has frozen her eggs to give to her daughter.

2. A woman who donated an organ to her daughter (who can be an adult or a child).

Both mum (under 50) and daughter must be identified and photographed.

♦ And finally a tabloid daily newspaper is following up on a survey by netmums which found women are having less sex than last year – but their romps are now wilder.

They need people who are willing to be named and photoraphed, ideally aged 20 – 40 and working.

If you’re any – or all (!) – of the above, contact us NOW.  info@sellthatstory.com

True love for Edith, 84, and Joseph, 92

Sunday, February 14th, 2010

goldenoldies0001Here’s a heart-warmer for Valentine’s Day, courtesy of SellThatStory. It’s in today’s Sunday People, in their Take It Easy magazine.

Joseph Gadion, 92, was the “Casanova” of the day centre for the elderly in Manchester. It was Edith Black, 84, who caught his eye.

He’d been married before, for 59 years, and she for 50, but they were both happy to prove age was no barrier for their love.

Chat about chat line work?

Tuesday, February 9th, 2010

♦ A women’s magazine is looking for women of any age who work for adult phone lines – maybe to fit in with kids  ot because they’re retired – and who don’t mind talking about why they do it.

♦ A tabloid newspaper wants to interview a woman who has been a victim of domestic violence and whose attacker has been convicted.

It’s a sensitive one, we appreciate, but believe the interviewee will be well compensated for their time. So if you have a story to sell and tell then let us know.

♦ A quality broadsheet is looking to interview a recent graduate  working as a fundraiser or similar in the charity or voluntary sector.  It follows a report showing big fall in vacancies here, despite a general improvement in the graduate jobs market.

Four boys, desperate for a girl?

Tuesday, February 9th, 2010

Another busy week with a shed load of requests for stories from newspapers and magazines.

A national newspaper is looking for women who have suffered gender disappointment. Last week’s Cutting Edge TV programme featured women who have had four or more boys and are longing for a girl.  The newpaper is looking for others in a similar situation.

A weekly women’s magazine is looking for spooky love stories, such as a woman who found love through a psychic, tarot reader, astrologist.

A tabloid newspaper wants to hear from ordinary women in situations similar to the partners of John Terry and Avram Grant – women whose partners may have slept either with a friend or with a prostitute.

Ideally one would have forgiven her partner  the other wouldn’t.
