Applied Sentience is always looking for quality articles, which includes opinion pieces, book and movie reviews, photo essays interviews, poetry, short stories, and most other formats.

• Most submissions are anywhere between 400-1500 words.  However, we often accept longer submissions that can’t be split into smaller pieces – so still ask!  Poetry, photo essays, or articles that include original videos, photography, or art under 400 words will also be considered.
• Send a summary of your idea, not a completed article. 
• Please send your summaries, drafts, and other materials to AppliedSentience@gmail.com with “Submission” in the subject line.
• We absolutely love pictures, especially original art work.  If you have any that you would like to include, please send them as email attachments.
• Lastly, as a heads up, if we accept your piece and its your first one, we’ll soon be asking for a headshot and short biography.  You can look at the Staff and Contributors pages for examples.
