Submit to TNI

We welcome short- and long-form pieces from anyone who wants to write. We look for well-written, original posts on ideas, books, art, culture, and more. These posts may contain a fully-formed idea or merely the seed of one; they may be full essays or only a paragraph. We do not accept fiction or poetry.

Send your pitch with writing samples or completed posts to:

submissions |at| thenewinquiry.com*

For complete submission guidelines, read TNI’s Submission Guidelines.

*Please note that we are currently developing new procedures for managing submissions. We really want to give each one the full attention it deserves, but this is growing more difficult with an increased volume of submissions. We will do our best to respond to each one in a timely manner, but advise you to seek other venues for your writing if you do not hear from us in two to three weeks–and apologize in advance for dropping the ball as we try to figure out a new, better submission review system. Thank you.
