In the coming weeks, we’re going to try giving Swift a serious overhaul. We’d like to see our frontpage brimming with original reportage, controversial commentary, intelligent critiques of critical thought (or its conspicuous absence) in popular media, profiles of skeptics and woo-woos, book reviews, and thought-provoking essays.

To that end, we are putting out a call for writers. Please send a note to This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. for a copy of our new writers’ guidelines or to pitch a story idea to the editor. In the meantime, please comment below on how you’d like to see Swift evolve. Both gripes and suggestions are welcome.

Thank you!
