Write for us

We welcome considered pitches about Southern places and culture, especially proposals that offer a clear question, a specific regional lens and useful context for curious general readers.

What we are looking for

Ideas may explore landscapes and seasons, foodways, built heritage, language, lore or regional life. Strong proposals are specific enough to explain what the piece will examine, while leaving room for the South's differences across place and time.

A good pitch

Tell us the proposed subject, the main idea, why it matters to readers and the form you have in mind. Include a brief note about relevant experience or access to useful material, but do not send a full draft unless requested.
