Pitch us
We read every pitch.
We commission essays, reportage, interviews, field notes and object studies from writers everywhere — especially first-time contributors.
01
Read an issue first
We commission for a specific word each quarter. The next theme is Borrowed (Winter 2026).
02
Send a paragraph, not a draft
Tell us the story, why now, and why you. 200 words is plenty.
03
We pay, always
€0.40 per word for features, €250 for Field Notes, within 30 days of publication.
04
We reply within two weeks
If you haven’t heard from us by then, the answer is no — but please try again.
