Griffith Review now accepting non-fiction pitches for GR Online, our online publishing platform. This is where we showcase short (1,000–1,500 words) pieces of commentary and critique that engage with contemporary culture, literature, politics and more (check out the GR Online homepage to get an idea of what we’ve published recently). We want new perspectives, original thinking and a healthy dose of stylistic flair. If this sounds like you, here’s what to submit via Submittable by the call-out closing date of Sunday 18 May:
* a short (no more than 100 words) biographical statement
* up to three short pitches (no more than 150 words each) for potential pieces
* a short (no more than 500 words) writing sample that shows us what wordsmith wizardry you can bring to GR Online.
We’d particularly welcome pitches from First Nations writers. We’d also be delighted to receive pitches from members of the d/Deaf and disabled writing communities. Please let us know if you have accessibility requirements or need us to make adjustments to the submission process.
We pay $500 per article.
We’ll notify our successful writers by June 2025.
Submissions close: 11:59 pm AEST, 18 May 2025
