Granta publishes reportage, memoir and essays, alongside a wide range of fiction, poetry and photo essays.

Please use this form to submit pitches for non-fiction pieces. The proposal must not be longer than 250 words, and should include all relevant information, primarily the subject matter (who, what, where, when), your angle, and the proposed length. Please also add an opening paragraph and provisional title, to give us a sense of your writing style.

Granta non-fiction must be interesting, original, well-written, and – as far as possible – true. We like a strong authorial voice, and welcome hybrid work, including the use of images.

Our editing process includes extensive fact-checking.

We do not publish pieces to support forthcoming books.

You can use the biography box to share a bio and links to previously published work.

Our commissioned pieces are normally between 1,500 and 8,000 words long. We will inform you of our rates on commission.

All submitted pitches are carefully considered, which is why we ask for a submission fee of £1.
