Aware RootsSignal / Noise Publishing daily

Write for us

Editorial contributions and sponsored placements. Both start here.

We publish contributions from people who know something specific and can show their work. We also sell a limited number of sponsored placements. Both go through the same form below, and both are read by a person.

What works here

  • A specific claim you can defend, not a survey of a topic.
  • Primary sources for every factual statement.
  • Firsthand experience: a protocol you ran, a device you used for three months, data you actually collected.
  • Willingness to say when something does not work.

What does not

  • Generic listicles assembled from other listicles.
  • Anything whose real purpose is a single link.
  • Generated drafts. We can tell, and so can the reader.

Sponsored placements

Available, labelled, and priced according to what the page is actually worth. Commercial links carry rel="sponsored". See our editorial policy before pitching. It will save us both time.

Send a pitch

Tell us the argument, not the topic. "Sleep tracking" is a topic; "consumer sleep-stage detection is less accurate than the apps imply" is an argument.
