If I were to boldly claim The London Mag's essays have any definitive style, it’s something of the rigour, humour and readability you can find in those three. Email me at jamie.cameron@thelondonmagazine.org. We reply to all pitches and we pay.

Joey Connolly's essay examines life’s overwhelming complexity and our attempts to navigate information overload. It highlights how poetry serves as a radical act of focused attention in a world increasingly defined by distraction. You should just read this because it is so good. shorturl.at/pmJPv

[CALL FOR PITCHES] The London Mag is looking for more essays that explore literature and its intersections with wider culture. Don’t be afraid to match high culture w/low, to be funny, iconoclastic, and have an authorial voice. Above all, please do not write in the tone of a PhD thesis lol.
