Should you submit to Slackjaw?
Slackjaw is larger than 96% of the 356 publications we track, and its stories get more claps than 87% of them. It regularly publishes writers with fewer than 100 followers (43% of recent stories), so it is a realistic target for new writers. 57% of its stories are member-only (Partner Program).
Submission rules change often — always check the publication's own “Write for us” or “About” page before pitching.
