Write for us

Clever Showbiz Review welcomes considered pitches about the making, presentation and reception of entertainment. We value a clear idea, a distinct angle and writing that leaves room for readers to think.

What to pitch

We are interested in original explainers, comparisons, historical background, myth-checking and occasion-focused pieces within our coverage. A strong proposal names its subject, states the main point it will make and explains what a general reader will take away.

What makes a good proposal

Keep the idea focused enough to handle well in one article. Tell us why the topic suits Clever Showbiz Review, what material or examples you plan to use, and whether the work has appeared elsewhere or is being offered elsewhere. Avoid unsupported claims and pitches built around access you cannot confirm.

How to send it

Send proposals through the Contact page, selecting the editorial question option and making clear that your message is a contribution pitch. Please send a proposal rather than a completed article unless we have agreed otherwise. A pitch is not a promise of publication.
