Whether you want to pitch a story, advertise with us, correct something we have published or get in touch, you’ll find the right inbox below.
The Mantrums is a small independent publication, which means an actual person reads every message—but possibly not within four minutes. Please allow us a little time to respond.
If you are unsure where your message belongs, send it to our general inbox. We’ll point it in the right direction.

You may submit under your own name, request a pseudonym or speak with us before deciding whether publication feels right.
Please include:
Submitting a story does not guarantee publication. We will never publish your work, identity or personal information without discussing it with you first.
If your story involves sensitive, identifying or legally restricted information, contact us before sending documents or detailed evidence so we can discuss a safer way to communicate.
Want to introduce your brand to an engaged audience that pays attention to where it spends its money?
We work with businesses and organisations that support gender equality, human rights, LGBTQIA+ inclusion, First Nations justice, sustainability and meaningful social change.
We do not accept advertising from brands hoping to place a pastel empowerment sticker over patriarchal leftovers.
Tell us about your organisation, what you would like to promote, your preferred campaign dates and your approximate budget.
If you believe we have published a factual error, omitted important context or fallen short of our editorial standards, please contact:
Include the article title or URL, the information you believe requires review and any reliable evidence supporting the correction.
We will assess genuine concerns carefully and correct material errors transparently. Disagreeing with an opinion is not necessarily eviden
The Mantrums welcomes thoughtful disagreement, constructive criticism and conversations that move the work forward.
