Aly's Snow Day Story Leads (And Some Job Leads too!)

I'm also sharing a fun spin on my brisket recipe!

Happy Friday!

Much of the northeast (and actually the country) is going to be hunkering down this weekend due to the maybe-blizzard on track. 

I'm all about comfort food when snowed in, and I'm working on a brisket for this weekend (that actually involves a two-day process). The brisket, in honor of the upcoming Lunar New Year, has some Asian flavor inspiration going on, with sesame oil, ginger, and more. I just uploaded the recipe to my Instagram stories, if you want to check it out and make it along with me!

Are you confused about affiliate marketing?

If you are having trouble learning how to navigate issues of affiliate marketing (trust me, we've all been there!), you may want to try out my friend Sarah Karger, a publicist, and former editor Dana Baardsen (and all-around fab girl!)'s Ultimate Masterclass and Introduction to Affiliate Marketing for Publicists. It's a brilliant course and it'll answer all your questions (including some you didn't know you had!)

Here's what I'm working on today and over the weekend

1 - For Clean Plates, I'm working on two stories that require input from credible non-brand-affiliated nutritionists. If you have someone, please email me and I'll tell you more.

2 - For TODAY.com, I'm rounding up restaurant deals and freebies for Valentine's Day. 

3 - For RetailMeNot, I'm rounding up Government Employee Discounts for 2022. When pitching me, please make sure each offer has a relevant link (if at all possible) that the reader can click through to to learn more, such as a link to the restaurant's/merchant's page about the deal. It's going to be a similar style and format to this story if you want an idea of what I'm looking for.
