Now Then Magazine

Now Then Magazine is an online magazine covering the local news and culture of Sheffield. They do not pay for commissioned pieces; they are only able to pay for stories for their ‘’Give Over’’ strand. Through Give Over, they ‘’want to spotlight people, groups and stories which recognise the violence inflicted on people in order to maintain borders and nation states – and what it would take for us to think beyond borders.’’ They are open to pitches that relate to border abolition, and abolitionist thinking more widely, particularly as they relate to Sheffield. Pay rates are not mentioned. For more information, refer to their ‘write for us’ page.
