A note before you write
Every message that lands in our inbox is read by a real human — usually over coffee, sometimes at midnight when inspiration strikes. We aim to respond within three business days, though seasons of heavy publishing may stretch that a little.
If you're submitting work, please take a moment to read a few of our recent pieces first. Understanding our editorial voice helps us see where your story might take root.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do you accept unsolicited submissions?
Yes, we do. We read every pitch that arrives. Send a short paragraph about your idea, why it matters to you, and any relevant writing samples. We respond within three weeks, always.
Are submissions paid or unpaid?
All published contributors receive compensation. Rates vary by piece length and complexity, and we discuss terms transparently before any contract is signed.
Can I republish my piece elsewhere afterward?
After an exclusivity window of 90 days, full rights return to the writer. You're free to republish, adapt, or anthologize your work however you wish.
How do I pitch a collaboration?
Send us a brief email describing the project, your audience, and what you envision. We review partnership requests weekly and reply within five business days.
