we are currently open for pitches, regular contributors, and collaborators
[formats] essays, reviews, op-eds, interviews, creative non-fiction
[tone] personal, unfiltered, unpolished, casual, critical
[topics] film/tv, culture, fashion, fragrance, music, books, art, etc.
we are not interested in topics that already dominate mainstream cultural discourse or pieces that reproduce widely circulating opinions.
we want writing that approaches subjects from an unexpected angle or challenges familiar interpretations rather than reiterating them.
we do not accept fiction, prose, or articles about travel, tech, politics, lifestyle, or food.
