Write For Us — A List Of 250+ Publications Open to New Writers

So, so many publications to write for (so many my eyeballs are ouchy)

Lately, I’ve found myself in a bit of a publication rut. Let me know if this sounds familiar…you post in the same publications repeatedly because you’re comfortable there, keep meaning to branch out — and then never do.

My psychic abilities are uncanny huh?

Crystalball aside, I’ve been living in that rut. Many friends I’ve been talking to are living in that comfortable hole in the ground with me, like we’re all groundhogs waiting for winter to be over. I’ve posted in three new-to-me pubs over the last 6 weeks, which is a half-assed effort.

Well, now’s our chance.

If you’re one of my OG hardcore mofo readers, this may look familiar. You’re not having a stroke, I did make this list six months ago. But I’ve found a buttload of new pubs since then. And if I updated that list, the way Medium works is that…nobody would see it. Unsurprisingly, Medium still hasn’t created a master list of active pubs. So here we are.

A few scribbles about this big ole list:

• Finding things when you need them here can be challenging, so you might want to bookmark this/save this for future use.
• This list is a lot of work, if you find it useful pretty please with bacon on top give me the clap or something (only on Medium is giving someone the clap appreciated).
• I’m including links to submission guidelines, be sure to read them thoroughly before submitting your post, and apply via the method they ask for.
• This list isn’t every pub accepting new writers (just the ones I could find without going cross-eyed searching every niche in existence). If you don’t see a pub in a niche you want, you can proactively look for pubs currently seeking writers by clicking on these: Call For Writers, Call For Submissions, and Write For Us.
• Remember that publication owners and editors are volunteers. Volunteering their time to help the Medium community. So when applying please be kind, and patient.
• Want your pub added to the list? Awesome! Please email me (link in bio) with the pub information and I’ll add it. My notifications can be a hot mess (on a good day) so I may not see every comment on this post forever — but email me and I’ll happily add it.
• If you make it all the way to the end I’ve got a bonus present for you.

Without further babbling balderdashing baloney…here’s the categorized list:

BONUS

You’re still here? Damn fam, you’ve got some serious publication dedication. You deserve a gift from a magical wizard, but since I’m just a mustachio’d gibbon here’s my bonus pub tip.

If you utterly love a specific publication but they aren’t advertising that they’re open to new writers (check to see if they have a “submissions guidelines/write for us” tab on their pub menu first), you can always give it a whirl. Go to the publication’s “about” page (add “/about” to the end of the pub’s URL), find the editors, and email them/send a private note/comment on one of their posts) asking if they will bring you on as a writer. Be supercalifragilisticexpialidociously nice, because remember they’re volunteers and might be super busy.

If you didn’t need the advice above…then…errrr…here’s some 🥓, 🍪 and/or a 🌮?

And here are the publications that have the boosty-mcboosty powers:
