Pitches (Culture, Social Justice)

We're accepting pitches for our Spring issue! It will be unthemed, so we're open to any and all ideas. Pitches are due Wednesday, October 30 and can be sent to editor@thismagazine.ca. More about what we look for:

SPRING ISSUE

We’re seeking news, arts and ideas stories, and features. This includes our back page open letter, memoir and opinion columns. We publish Canadian residents only and accept queries (not completed manuscripts). We suggest familiarizing yourself with the magazine and previously published stories before pitching. For more details on the kinds of pieces we run, see below.

We like stories that aren’t likely to be found anywhere else, ideally with a social justice tie-in. In your pitch, it’s always great to say why you want to tell this story now, why you’re the one to tell it, sources you plan to consult, and any takeaways your piece will include for the reader. In other words, what might people learn, or start to learn, from reading your story?

Pitches are due Wednesday, October 30, 2024 and can be sent to Sarah Ratchford, editor@thismagazine.ca.
