Write for Us
Got a fascinating, true story that would make someone say “wait, really?” We'd love to hear it.
What we’re looking for
- Original stories in psychology, science, illusions, history, space or the human body
- Fresh angles on surprising research, explained clearly for curious adults
- Classic or original brain teasers with airtight logic and a great explanation
- Writers who love checking facts as much as telling stories
Our standards
- Sources for every factual claim — peer-reviewed research, institutions or primary documents. Entertainment websites alone don’t count.
- Evidence labelled honestly. Say when something is a single study, a hypothesis or a myth.
- Original writing only. No previously published, spun or unedited AI-generated text.
- No paid links. We don’t accept guest posts as a way to place links. Sponsored content is a separate, clearly labelled arrangement.
How to pitch
Email editors@mindsteal.com with a working headline, a three-sentence summary, two or three key sources, and links to work you’ve published before. We reply to every pitch we can take forward.
Editing and review
Every piece goes through editing and a fact-check before publishing. We may suggest changes to structure, headline or sourcing, and you’ll see the final version before it goes live.
