Writers

Catapult is looking for pitches! Pitch us an essay that weaves personal narrative AND cultural analysis. Topics may vary, but we dig: travel, food/drink, style, video games, TV, theatre, sports (news pegs are OK, but the essay itself must be evergreen). I’m looking to schedule things for second half of May, so if you have a complete draft of 2000 words or less lying around that you’re not sure what to do with, let me skim and let’s see what we can do. Catapult is an innovative publisher that celebrates extraordinary storytelling. It promotes American and international fiction and narrative nonfiction that is insightful, stirring, and surprising by way of unique voices—whether emerging or established—that honor the craft of writing. Before applying, review submission guidelines. Email all questions and submissions to Matt Ortile, Executive Editor of Catapult, at: matt.ortile@catapult.co
