Terms
Submitting your pitch does not guarantee acceptance or publication with The Kraze.
All guest posts are subject to editorial review by The Kraze’s Editors and Editor-in-Chief. Any and all editorial changes will be returned to the writer for approval before publication. The Kraze will not alter your opinion or content in any way other than the necessary editorial changes. We reserve the right to deny publication of any guest post that is inflammatory or inappropriate.
Guest posts are not compensated.
We welcome multiple pitches, but please wait for a decision on your first pitch before submitting more!
Acceptance of guest posts does not indicate any guarantee of future volunteerism or employment with our organization. (If you’re interested in working with us long term, please consider applying as a writer!)
We do not accept previously published pieces (including pieces published on personal blogs).
If accepted for publication, The Kraze will include your author byline (~70 words), as well as any social media, portfolio, or website links that you would like listed on the article page.
Accepted pieces will be promoted on The Kraze’s official social media platforms.
What The Kraze looks for:
The best way to get a sense of what we look for in articles is to read our content. We strive for a more professional style that is clean, concise, and a cut above the style of writing often found on K-Pop news sites. Criticisms and opinions are allowed, but they must be kept civil and non-inflammatory; we use a neutral tone overall. We do not use much slang or first/second person pronouns, and more casual blog-style writing and memes are not in line with our publication. Our editorial team will address any issues with your article prior to publishing it—we will offer suggestions and changes where necessary, and we will not publish the piece without your consent on the changes.
