I'm a writer and editor covering parenting, families, toys, entertainment. and trends for Good Housekeeping. Previously, I worked at Parents and Working Mother, and my byline has also appeared in McSweeney's Internet Tendency, The Condé Nast Traveler, Bustle, The Hairpin, and others.
For PR and freelance pitches for Good Housekeeping: Please email me at marisa [dot] lascala [at] hearst.com. Unfortunately, I get so many pitches that I can't respond to all of them, but I do look at everything there, I promise! Please note that I don't cover beauty, food, or pets even as they relate to kids and families, like kid lunches/snacks or postpartum skincare for moms. Also, I only work for the U.S. brand of Good Housekeeping, not the U.K. one (which I know is confusing because they re-post my stories sometimes).
All non-PR/freelance inquiries can use mlascala [at] gmail.com. PR and freelance pitches sent to my Gmail address will not be read.
