How to Write for The Ugly Monster
We’re the Frankenstein of Media
The Ugly Monster is accepting submissions related to just about any media on Earth. Film, television, video games, tabletop games, novels, comic books, the news, music, poetry, whatever.
Reviews, analyses, game mods/hacks, guides, and even politicizations are all good. Genres range from sci-fi and horror to historical fiction and non-fiction. Everything from big franchises, like Marvel, to niche interests, like robot combat, are in our wheelhouse.
All submissions must be your original work, and not syndicated from another platform. Submissions must be un-posted drafts (exceptions below). Submissions must meet Medium’s curation guidelines, including their AI guidelines. Please proofread your article before submitting. Keep links leading outside of the publication to a minimum. Attribute all images, GIFs, and embedded videos appropriately (movies: distributor, television: network, books: publisher, games: publisher, and music: label). Text, titles, and topics may be edited for readability and effect.
Like the Necromongers in ‘The Chronicles of Riddick’, “you keep what you kill”. You may meter your articles through Medium’s Partner Program. You may also embed one Audience Development link at the bottom of your article. This link can lead to your profile, Email Subscriptions (via Medium), or your Tipping platform.
You retain all rights to your work on The Ugly Monster. That said, please do not remove articles once they’ve been accepted, edited, and published as a courtesy to the editor.

If you have any questions, do not hesitate to ask.
