We are looking for well-researched, clearly written original articles on the history, religion, philosophy, and culture of the Indian subcontinent. We are especially interested in stories that are underrepresented — overlooked kingdoms, forgotten scholars, regional traditions, living practices.
Deep dives into a period, kingdom, ruler, or event — told with narrative drive and grounded in scholarship.
Accessible but rigorous explorations of dharmic traditions, texts, and concepts for the thoughtful general reader.
Thoughtful pieces on art, architecture, literature, music, pilgrimage, or festival — the living fabric of the subcontinent.
Profiles of figures — ancient or modern — whose lives illuminate the broader arc of Indian civilisation.
All submissions must be original and not published or under consideration elsewhere. We do not accept reprints.
Most published pieces fall between 1,000 and 2,500 words. Longer pieces are considered case by case.
Claims should be grounded in primary or secondary sources. We expect factual accuracy and the ability to substantiate your assertions.
Write for a curious general reader. Clarity, narrative drive, and intellectual honesty are what we prize above all.
We aim to respond to all pitches within two weeks. If you have not heard back after three weeks, you are welcome to follow up once.
