Submit a Guest Opinion Essay

Opinion Guest Essays at The New York Times make an argument, based in fact, drawn from an author’s expertise or experience and delivered in the author’s own voice. (These essays were formerly known as Op-Eds because they appeared in print opposite the editorial page.) Please keep in mind — especially if you have a submission on a timely or developing news story — that it may take at least a day before an editor can review submissions sent through this form. Also, please do not send duplicate submissions to Opinion. If you submit through this form, please do not follow up separately by email to individual editors.
