Contingent is a non-profit history magazine. “Our writers are adjuncts, museum workers, independent scholars—all people who work outside the tenure-track professoriate.” They are accepting pitches for the Mailbag column, which is “roughly 400 to 500 words. Is there a question you’re often asked about the work of doing history? Do you wish there were a short, accessible answer to that question you could just point them to? Write it for us. The base pay is $150.”
They are also accepting pitches for the Postcards column. “We are accepting pitches for both research and conference postcards. The base pay for a postcard is $50.”
All other sections are currently closed. See the pitch call here. Details are in their pitch guide here.
