The Bitter Southerner loves a good story, especially ones that expand the narrative of the South. We welcome pitches for narrative nonfiction, journalism, and personal essays, as well as submissions of photo essays, video, and audio.

Do you have a story about the South? Tell us a story about the South that the world needs to hear. Please carefully read through our guidelines before submitting. You’ll find information on who we are, the types of stories we publish, and important submission guidelines.
