Submission guidelines

Before you submit an article

You don’t need to be a professional writer to have a story worth sharing. These guidelines will help you submit an article, suggest an idea, or introduce your personal story to Reframed Magazine.

  • What we welcome Personal essays, thoughtful articles, and story ideas about identity, second chances, criminal justice, family, community, film, art, and creativity.
  • Suggested length Aim for 600–1,500 words for a completed article. For a story idea or personal experience, 150–300 words is enough to get started.
  • Your work and sources Submit material you wrote or have permission to share. Mention any previous publication and include sources for statistics, research, and factual claims.
  • Privacy and personal details Share only details you’re comfortable having considered for publication. Tell us about any concerns involving names or identifying information.

Publication & payment

Contributions are currently unpaid. We cannot accept every submission. Sending an article, suggesting a story, or completing an interview does not guarantee publication. If selected, we’ll discuss editing, credit, and publication permission with you before publishing.

  • All submissions are considered by the editor; sending a submission does not guarantee publication.
What is it about, and what would you like readers to understand? A few paragraphs are enough.
