Call for Submissions

We’re looking for well-written, fully voiced, and engaging articles and personal essays to publish on One Lit Place. Topics may include the writing life, writing craft, publishing, writer’s block, tools and apps, your journey as a writer, what you’ve learned as a writer, academic writing life, writing for business, interviews, reviews, or another aspect of writing across any genre.

Submissions should be 750-2,000 words, unique, detailed, and in line with the writer-centric mandate of supporting other writers with valuable insights of One Lit Place, and include links to other credible relevant websites. 

If you have a book or other publication coming out, guest posts are a great way to increase your visibility and sales, and a byline is a wonderful way to boost your portfolio and meet up with new readers of your work.

Interested in publishing your work with us? 

• Familiarize yourself with the kind of articles we publish to get a feel for how we support our community. You can see all of our articles on our Blog Page.
• Pitches of 1-2 paragraphs may be sent to us HERE. You may also send a draft of the work to give us an idea of your topic and writing style.
• If your submission is accepted:
  • The piece will be lightly edited for content readability and One Lit Place house style, formatted for web reading, and optimized for search engines.  
  • First North American Rights will be granted One Lit Place (copyright reverts back to the author after publication), and the submission may not appear elsewhere in its existing form.
  • Payment: $50 USD or $65 CAD
