What we publish<\/strong><\/h4>\n

We\u2019re looking for writers with a distinctive voice, who aren’t afraid of getting personal, and who are curious about why we watch what we watch. We appreciate thoughtful analysis but also a playful tone; we want intelligent pieces that aren’t too full of themselves. We don’t think of ourselves as an authority, but a confidante.<\/p>\n

How to submit<\/strong><\/h4>\n

\u200d<\/strong>We strongly prefer completed pieces (max 1,000 words)<\/strong>, but we understand that writing on spec is not a realistic prospect for many writers. With that in mind, we still accept pitches.<\/p>\n

\n\u200d<\/strong>– Completed piece (doesn’t need to be perfectly polished!)
