We love hearing from our amazing Asian Woman Festival Community and know the importance of shining a light on stories from underrepresented groups like South Asian women and marginalised genders. If you want to share a story or opinion with us, there are a few ways to do it, so read the below carefully so we can make sure we present your story in the best possible way! 
 

Pitch a blog
 

We receive a high number of pitches for blogs, and these steps will help the process go smoothly, so please read before contacting us.  
 

• Send us an email with the title of your piece in the subject line of your email.

• Include no more than a paragraph explaining what your piece will be about and why it is a story that is particularly suited to the Asian Woman Festival platform.

• A link to any other writing you have done (don’t worry if you don’t have any previous experience, just let us know and we’ll bear that in mind!) 

• A link to any of your social accounts 

• Please email your pitch to Kim, our Content Manager
   

We will then get back to you if we think your pitch is a right fit. We look forward to hearing from you!

Send us a micro-blog 
 

If you think your story is better suited to a smaller word count or even if you’re not that confident in writing, but have something you want to share with other community, micro-blogging might just be for you! We will use your words within an Instagram post, accompanied by an image. 

​

To pitch us a caption/ micro-blog:
 

• Please send us an email with ‘microblog’ in the subject line followed by the topic of your post.  

• Within the body of the email please send the full post, ensuring you do not go over 2,200 characters. 

• Attach any images you have that you think could go with your words, or let us know if you would prefer us to source an image. 

• Please email your pitch to Kim, our Content Manager

​

We will get back to you if we think your submission is right for our socials. 

​Please note that any submissions that do not follow these guidelines will not be accepted. We do endeavour to get back to every submission and pitch but due to a high number of submissions, we may take some time getting back to you.
