Write for us
Quadrant accepts unsolicited, previously unpublished articles that fit within its general profile of a journal of ideas, essays, literature, poetry and historical and political debate. Although it retains its founding bias towards cultural freedom, anti-totalitarianism and classical liberalism, its pages are open to any well-written and thoughtful contribution. Our magazine is published ten times a year, monthly, except for combined issues in January-February and July-August. We publish articles online on a daily basis.
We are happy to consider articles of any length on their merits; there is no minimum length but an upper limit of 3,000 words is usually sufficient. By submitting a work to Quadrant you licence us to publish it online and in our magazine.
How to Submit
Non-fiction magazine articles and letters to the editor should be sent to Rebecca Weisser (Editor-in-chief) and George Thomas (Deputy Editor).
Online articles should be sent to Roger Franklin (Online Editor).
Poems and literary criticism should be sent to Barry Spurr (Literary Editor).
Music articles should be sent to Alexander Voltz (Music Editor).

Please note: Quadrant pays contributors for magazine articles, reviews, poems and short fiction. If your submission is accepted for publication, one of our team will contact you to arrange payment.
