Call for Pitches

It’s been a while coming, but the SRB is once again reopening for pitches via our Submittable portal. The portal will be open on 19 September and close on 3 October 2025.  

Note: The Submittable link will be made available here on 19 September.  

For more information on pitching to the SRB, what we’re looking for, and rates of pay, please read our ‘Write for the SRB’ page.

If you’re considering pitching, you’ll need to prepare the following documents:   

• a brief bio (of no more than 100 words); 
• a pitch (of no more than 250 words);* 
• a writing sample (of no more than 800 words). 

*Each submission may contain up to 3 pitches, but we will not accept more than one submission per person.

Please keep in mind that commissions resulting from successful pitches will likely be published in the early months of 2026. 

If you have any questions about the process, please address them to the SRB team via email at  enquiries@sydneyreviewofbooks.com.
