Our essay submissions are open all year round. Use this essay space to process major events and how they impact your life. Take an analysis of current events or past events that you're still grappling with and weave it with a story.
We know that you're not Roxanne Gay or Sloane Crosley, but maybe you're the next great essayist. If you need examples of the style we're looking for in essays, we recommend reading an essay or two by each of these outstanding authors.
We are working to break down the barrier to publishing by seeking works for folks who traditionally have difficulty accessing the publishing world or are underrepresented. Your voice is welcome here.
Guidelines:
>Send one document containing one essay
>No more than 4 double-spaced pages in length
>Please submit your work in double-spaced, 12-point font
NOTE: Because this is open year-round, we ask that you wait until you hear from us on your first submission before sending us another.
