20s is a digital storytelling platform and community. We’re always looking to have more stories on our site, and we’re excited for you to join our community! Check out some more info about our columns and our process below.
Dear 20s
A collection of first-hand stories told by 20-somethings.
Our Dear 20s column is the bread and butter of our site. It’s entirely submissions-based and hard to find on any other platform. For this column, we’re interested in pieces that tell sincere stories about real experiences. They can be short or long, funny or serious, whatever feels right to you. We also welcome stories from people not in their 20s (that is, stories from writers older or younger than 20-29), just as long as it’s somehow connected to your 20s.
In order to find your story a home on our site, all we need is at least one paragraph on what you want your story to be about. Short excerpts or completed pieces are also great!
Voices
Discover the stories of others through interviews, profiles and one-on-ones.
This column is all about giving people doing great things a platform to voice their journeys, beliefs, and projects. If you want to cover someone, or are looking for a place to pitch an interview idea, this column is the place to do it.
Bounce Back
When life gets too crazy, read this, recharge and bounce back.
Bounce Back houses our listicles, EYE CANDY series and more. If you’ve written a piece that you think would work for Bounce Back, submit it below.
Our Editing Process
We believe in working with our writers to help create the best work that finds and inspires a wide audience. After you pitch your submission to us, we’ll respond with any pieces of advice we have or direction. If approved, you’ll send us your article and it will go through our editing process.
We pride ourselves on our quick response time when selecting your articles. You should hear back from us within the week.
