Submissions
We are looking for people who want to spend a long time on one idea, and we would rather read a pitch than a finished piece.
What we publish
Long essays, short graphic strips, and filmed lectures — across philosophy, mind, society, science, culture and history. One subject, taken seriously, at whatever length it actually needs.
How it works
An editor reads your application and answers it. If we take you on, you get a studio account, you draft in it, and an editor reads each piece before it goes live. Nothing publishes without a person agreeing to it — including ours.
What we pay
70% of every sale. Readers buy a paid piece for Ksh 50; after the payment provider's fee, 70% of what is left is yours, earned the moment it sells. A month's sales can be withdrawn to M-Pesa or a bank once the month closes. Free pieces are read, not sold, and earn nothing.
