Write for us

We welcome thoughtful contributions that help readers explore change without pretending uncertainty has disappeared. Send proposals through the Contact page.

What we are looking for

Pitch a focused article about a futures-thinking method, a revealing assumption, a set of contrasting scenarios or a choice that looks different when several outcomes are considered. Strong pieces explain one central idea in clear English and leave readers with a useful question or way to think.

What to include

Tell us the working title, the main point, the intended reader and why the piece suits Lively Future Guide. Mention the shape of the article and any sources or examples you expect to rely on. We consider original proposals; a pitch is not a guarantee of publication.

A careful approach

We are not looking for confident predictions dressed as certainty, promotional copy or advice that requires professional judgement. Keep evidence, interpretation and speculation distinct, and disclose any interests that could affect how readers understand the work.
