Parapraxis is an all-volunteer magazine that publishes twice a year in print and semi-frequently on our website.

Print Issues are themed. We are currently closed for submissions for Issue 05: Economies (Winter 2024). We are actively seeking pitches for Issue 07: Romance (Winter 2025) and for our (un-themed) website, where we do not adhere to any theme. Pieces for web are on rolling deadlines; pieces for Issue 07 would be due in the spring.

The best way to write for us, so the axiom goes, is to read us. You'll see we don't have a house style--far from it--but we do work more in a magazine paradigm than that of an academic journal. We commission in many categories, some of which are pretty standard (book and arts reviews, features, political/social reportage etc) and some of which are our own (like "Clinical Conflict," or, anonymous testimony from analysts and patients).

Print rates vary depending on length from $500-800. Web rates are a flat $500. We are very sorry this is not more.

We largely work from pitches. We do not publish fiction or poetry. If you have an essay already drafted, please still fill out this form and note that below.

The GGSC is pleased to announce a request for proposals (RFP) to support nonfiction content and reported stories related to love. We are interested in projects that extend well beyond romantic love; we define love as a deep, unselfish commitment to another person’s well-being—even to put their interests before your own.

The GGSC will distribute grants of between $5,000 and $50,000 to two dozen journalists and media producers who approach the topic of love from a variety of angles and across a range of media, including articles, videos, radio stories, podcasts, social media content, and more. The grants are part of the GGSC's Spreading Love Through the Media project, supported by a three-year grant from the John Templeton Foundation, with additional funding from Acton Family Giving and Unlikely Collaborators.

In addition to financial support, we will also connect the grantees with scientific experts who will serve as advisors to their projects, guiding them to relevant research and helping them align their work with the science of love. Grantees will participate in quarterly cohort meetings online and three in-person convenings over the course of the project period.

The submission window opens January 7, 2025, and the application deadline is 11:59 pm PT on March 24, 2025. For grant winners, the project period will run from September 1, 2025, to February 28, 2027.

Thank you for your interest in AJI’s 2025-2027 Reporting Fellowship, which will begin in September.
 
The fellowship offers aspiring journalists a two-year educational program that prepares them for careers as credible, non-partisan reporters in the nation’s capital or wherever their work may take them. Students learn core skills from respected professional reporters and editors in a classroom setting, and they gain real-world experience by working as reporters at AJI’s publication, NOTUS. Students are paid an annual stipend of $60,000 so that they can live in the D.C. area and devote their attention and energy to the fellowship. More information about the fellowship — including testimonials from current fellows and bios of AJI faculty and staff — can be found at aji.org, and you can read NOTUS here.

Applications are due February 19, 2025 at 11:59pm ET.
 
We plan to review applications in February, March and April, selecting a group of finalists to interview. We expect to tell all applicants in April whether they are moving on to the interview round. And we expect to complete interviews and notify finalists of our decisions in May. All applicants must have U.S. work authorization in order to be eligible for this fellowship. AJI fellows are not eligible for employment-based visa sponsorship.
 
If you have any questions about the program or the application, please contact us at admissions@aji.org. We look forward to reading your application.
