How to Submit Articles

eCLAL welcomes article queries and submissions. The best way to submit articles and story pitches is via email. Since we are a not-for-profit organization, we do not have a budget to pay for outside writers. Nonetheless, we welcome your interest and submissions.

We ask that you please send the text of your query or submission in plain text in the body of your email, rather than as an attached file, as we may not be able to read the format of your file.

If you wish to contribute, please spend some time familiarizing yourself with eCLAL's various rubrics and topical themes. Please put the words "EDITORIAL SUBMISSIONS" in the subject line of the e-mail. Submissions should be sent to Ruth Bregman, the Assistant Editor, at rbregman@clal.org.

In your email, please tell us a little about yourself -- your experience and background as a writer and qualifications for writing a particular story. If you have clips you can send us via e-mail, or Web addresses of pages that contain your work, please send us a representative sampling (no more than three or four, please).

We do our best to respond to all inquiries, but be aware that we are sometimes inundated. If you have not heard back from us after three weeks, please assume that we will not be able to use your idea or submission.

Also please note that eCLAL does not solicit fiction or poetry submissions and will not be able to respond to such submissions.
