WRITERS GUIDELINES

Thank you for your interest in writing for XXL magazine and/or XXLMag.com.
Please e-mail the proper section editor—for in-book or online work—a query letter or story pitches rather than submitting a completed manuscript; they will contact you if we are interested in your idea or in having you write for us.

Give us an official pitch of your story idea or ideas; include a brief biography that describes your writing experience and some clips of your published work. WE DO NOT ACCEPT COMPLETED ESSAYS.

If you would like to submit ideas to multiple sections of the magazine and/or website, go to XXLMag.com/contact and write separate queries to the appropriate editors using their contact information. There you will find our current staff list with their job titles.
