They are accepting submissions for the Vertical, 750-2,000 words, short-form opinion, analysis or reportage pieces, as well as 2,000-4,000 words, full-length Features and Essays. Pitches must have a degree of urgency, news-worthiness, or lack of coverage, to indicate importance. Rates start at $200 for the Vertical and $400 for Features/Essays depending on word count but they’re flexible and compensate based on labor. Pitch guide here. Send pitches to [email protected] with “DISAPPEARANCE” in the subject line
