Submit your full piece to the appropriate editors' email with the subject line "SUBMISSION" along with a short bio and selfie of yourself to include with the piece once it is published online (optional if you wish to remain anonymous). To maximize your chances of being published, reference our Mood Board to see what each particular section editors like. 

Once your piece is published (simply check the website regularly after you've been told you've been approved), remember to promote it across your social media channels! It is mutually beneficial that your piece get as much coverage as it can -- we will promote it across our Instagram, Twitter, and Facebook, but creatives that promote it across their social media channels as well, regardless of how large or small their following is, tend to get hundreds of views more than those who do nothing at all.

WE WILL NOT RECEIVE ANY MORE PITCHES FOR THE FIRST ISSUE OF UNFURLED.

Simply send a pitch to unfurledmag@gmail.com with the subject line "PITCH." We don’t want a full piece (and we’re sure you don’t want to write an entire article or shoot an entire editorial just to have it rejected), so just send off an sentence or two about your idea and a few pieces you've created before and hit send! If we want to hear more, we'll email you.

Please include what medium you'll be working with, the motivations behind you creating the piece, the intended effect of the piece, and a few examples of your work so the team can better understand how the completed product will turn out.

Since this will be our first issue, we are very open to all submissions and styles of expressing oneself. Whatever you think would be good, send! We want everything you have. If you'd like a little more guidance, please refer to the Mood Board.

The theme for the first issue is “UNFURLED.” This is intentionally vague -- please interpret the prompt in whatever way you please. If you have a spectacular piece that definitely doesn't fit within these confines, send anyways! If we like it, we will adapt our issue around it.
