Submit

Original op-ed, essay, and creative submissions are welcome.

Please send completed works or pitches to submit@merionwest.com with the subject line “Article Submission” to be considered for publication. Submissions that have previously appeared elsewhere, including on personal blogs, cannot be considered. 

Please make clear if a submission is simultaneously being offered to other publications, and please include hyperlinks in the text for specific claims and figures.

While we publish longer pieces from time to time, we prefer essay submissions be under 3,000 words. Op-eds ideally range from 750-1,100 words.

Interview requests can also be sent to the above email address.

If submitting poetry, please do so thorough Duosuma by Duotrope. Before submitting, please review the poetry submission guidelines.
