If you’ve got a knack for writing or capturing sick moments on film - we wanna see it. Submit your article or photos to us and potentially get featured on our socials and site alongside a bunch of legends who make up the Year13 contributors’ team.
What we're after
Real stories, study advice, gap year shenanigans, things you wish your teacher had told you, how you failed your Ps test, what it was like dropping out in Year 10, how great your first festival was. We want to know how it felt to lose your best mate, that time you had a break down, how you landed your dream gig or how your dreams have completely changed. If you’ve got a knack for stringing together words or just have something to say – let’s have it.
What's in for me?
Year13 boasts a young crew of writers who are passionate about encouraging their mates to explore their career options (because most of us have no idea wtf is going on). It’s an awesome feeling to be able to share stories and help each other out and we want you to be a part of this. It’s also a great chance to give writing a go, get creative, have your story heard and maybe even get published and gain some exposure while building up your portfolio.
Alright, so how do I submit?
You don’t have to awkwardly call us up for a chat, you can write your article in
your trackies at 3am while you’re procrastinating doing an assignment. All we want
is for you to write the article the way you want to write it – get creative and have
fun! But before you do, have a read through our
FAQs
and
submission guidelines
to get all the info ya need.
When you’ve whipped up your meticulous article, set up an email ready to send to
socials@year13.com.au and
copy and paste this and fill it out.
Hit send and if we love your article and what you have to say, we’ll contact you back.
What are you waiting for? Go submit ya legends.
Meet our writers
Damon, 26
Damon (infamously known as Damo) is one of the legends behind a tonne of the articles you read on Year13, particularly the ones that make you wanna jump on a plane immediately and travel the globe. The Year13 crew are usually trying to get Damo to speak backwards (awesome party trick, btw), but when he isn’t in the office you’ll catch Damo sussing out the surf, getting musical with his guitar or reading a good book.
Izzy, 21
Izzy is one of the grooviest, gnarliest gals you’ll meet and the amazing voice behind some of the funniest articles on Year13. In the office you’ll find her sharing stories of her wild weekend escapades filming music videos and heading to countless gigs. When she’s not in the office, you’ll catch her at film school (absolute talent she is), basking in the sun or jamming out to Led Zeppelin. Send it Izzy!
Josh, 22
Josh is one of the hard working legends of Year13, being both a writer and a content/socials manager, on top of working his way through a full-time double degree in Law and Journalism. If you’ve sent us a DM, chances are you’ve chatted with Josh. When he’s not slogging through an assignment, you’ll catch Josh going to gigs, attending any fesi he can get to or inventing creative new drinking games with his mates.
Sacha, 22
Sacha is the official boujiee writing queen of Year13. She is behind most of the articles you read on site that connect you to the career pathway that’s right for you, and she’s bloody good at it, let us tell ya. When she’s not in office, you’ll find Sacha on the beach in Byron with her fam, bantering with her pals, creating TikTok dances with anyone and everyone or trying to learn how to do a cartwheel (life goal). On ya Sach!
