What We're Looking For

Submission Categories

We cover six editorial territories — each with its own voice, angle, and appetite for original work.

Glam of Life

Fashion features, beauty essays, style profiles, and the philosophy of dressing. We love personal angles and cultural observations over trend reports.

800 – 2,000 words
Human Touch

Personal essays, reported features, and intimate profiles about what it means to be human in a fragmented world. Vulnerability welcomed.

1,000 – 3,000 words
Connections

Travel, culture, community, friendship, and the places and moments that bind us together across difference.

800 – 2,500 words
Business Discoveries

Entrepreneurship stories, innovation profiles, and big ideas with a human face. We want narrative, not jargon.

1,000 – 2,500 words
Curious Minds

Ideas, science, philosophy, and anything that makes us see the world differently. The stranger the angle, the more we lean in.

800 – 3,000 words
Photography

Photo essays, portraiture, fashion shoots, and documentary work. A short editorial statement is required alongside all image submissions.

6 – 20 images · 300dpi

How It Works

The Submission Process

01
Pitch Your Idea

Send a 100–200 word pitch outlining your idea, angle, and why it fits GlamBon. No full drafts at this stage.

02
We Respond

Our editorial team reviews all pitches within 48 hours. If we're interested, we'll discuss angle, tone, and length with you.

03
Write & Submit

Commissioned pieces are submitted as a Google Doc or plain text file. Deadline and brief will be confirmed at commission stage.

04
Edit & Publish

Our editors work collaboratively. You'll see and approve any significant changes before publication. Payment follows publication.

What We Love

Specific, reported details — interview sources, name places, show your work

A clear, distinct voice — we want to hear you, not a generic editorial persona

Angles that surprise — challenge assumptions, bring an unexpected frame

Passion that shows — we can tell when you genuinely care about your subject

First-person experience is welcome, especially for personal essays and travel

What We Don't Accept

Previously published work or simultaneous submissions

AI-generated or substantially AI-assisted writing — we value authentic human voice above all

Advertorial content or pieces that promote specific brands without editorial justification

Trend listicles or aggregated "best of" round-ups without original reporting

Unsolicited full manuscripts — always pitch first
