If you want to have your work featured on the Hothouse website, send us a pitch!
We accept anything from literary criticisms, to personal essays, to reviews/recommendations of films/books, to mixed-media pieces, to satires of any-and-everything. And while we are open to experimentation and innovation, please keep in mind that Hothouse is a literary site, and not necessarily a place to submit work that would be better suited for our print edition. For example, while we’re sure your poetry is achingly tender, our website is a space to talk about literature and the literary adjacent—not necessarily to create it.
If this sounds interesting to you, go ahead and send us a pitch! Pitches should:
- State clearly what you’d like to talk about
- Mention the conversation you’re entering into
- List what you’ll be hitting on
- Explain the larger implications (i.e. why we should care)
- Be sent to the Hothouse email with the subject line “ATTN Website: Pitch”
- Be written in the body of the email
- Be roughly 100 words
If your pitch has been accepted, our Website Editor will respond with information about the drafting and editing process.
We look forward to reading your pitches!
