A BIT ABOUT US

frankie is a platform that celebrates and inspires a community of creatively inclined, curious and kind-hearted people. In our bi-monthly print magazine, you'll find interviews, research pieces, quirky small-businesses, and photography and art projects. On our blog, you'll find fun listicles, interviews and curious bits and bobs. And on our small-business platform, Strictly Business, you'll find inspiring stories and advice from small-biz owners.

CONTRIBUTOR GUIDELINES

The frankie ‘personality’ is funny, friendly, smart, cute, rude, naughty, interested, serious and caring. frankie readers expect the unexpected – if you can imagine your idea running in another Australian publication, then you’ll have to re-think your pitch.

For all contributors, both finished work and pitches are welcome. If sending only a pitch, please include clippings and/or portfolio samples of previous work. The best way to get an idea of the frankie style is to read our back issues.

FOR WRITERS

 We’re looking for writers who can provide sharp-eyed perspectives and narratives, bursting with personal insight and wit. Our best writing is unflinchingly honest, irreverent and stylish, but never too-cool-for-school. It should welcome the reader in rather than shut them out. Please note that we rarely publish fiction – our focus is on profile pieces, research pieces and opinion pieces.

Email your submissions to editorial@frankie.com.au with all your relevant details in the form of a standard .doc or .rtf attachment.

FOR PHOTOGRAPHERS, ILLUSTRATORS AND MAKERS

We're looking for photography, art, craft and design projects that are quirky, smart, cute, retro-tinged and inspiring. One of the magazine’s greatest strengths is its individual design, and our best creative contributors know what makes something ‘frankie’ and what doesn’t.

Email your submissions to creative@frankie.com.au with all your relevant details in the form of lo-res jpeg attachments, pdfs and/or links to websites or file-sharing sites.
