Submission Guidelines
10ka20 welcomes original work from established and emerging voices. We accept long-form essays (1,500–6,000 words), annotated reading lists, research digests, and curated source bundles. Pitch first — send a 200-word abstract plus two writing samples to [email protected]. Response time is 14 days.
We commission across every discipline: philosophy, science, art, technology, history, literature, and the spaces between. Payment is competitive; rights revert to authors after 90 days. Simultaneous submissions are fine — just flag conflicts promptly.
Partnership Inquiries
We work with universities, independent presses, research labs, and cultural institutions to surface overlooked work and broaden access to rigorous thinking. Reach [email protected] with a one-page brief. We respond within five business days and review proposals quarterly.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I pitch a story?
Email [email protected] with a 200-word abstract, two writing samples, and your bio. We respond within 14 days. Unsolicited full drafts are accepted but reviewed more slowly.
Can I republish my work?
Yes. Rights revert 90 days after publication. You may repost on your own site or in print with a note crediting 10ka20 and linking to the original.
Do you pay contributors?
Always. Rates depend on length and research depth, starting at $0.50/word for essays and $250 flat for curated lists. Commissioned work includes a signed agreement.
