About

Hi there! We are Danielle Berg, Daniel Erenberg and Joseph Ireland, the founders of Slow Century Magazine. We worked together at our college newspaper, and at various times, have each been each other’s boss. (Now we enjoy equal reign and only miss telling people what to do sometimes.) Since graduating college, we wanted to recapture the fun and excitement of working together on something we truly enjoyed – and because no one would hire all three of us at the same magazine, we decided to start our own.

We want to embrace a personal, no-limits journalism, and we hope to do that by delivering point-of-view stories that are interesting, relevant and unique. And in an effort to not further contribute to the dulling of senses known to follow prolonged web browsing, we encourage you to view this site as a place of genuine interaction. Leave comments, or even ask to write with us. We don’t discriminate on the basis of writing experience or personal interests – anything to round out our voice. Everyone’s got a story to tell, and telling them is our – if we had to pick one, which we don’t, but if we did – mission.

If you’re interested in writing for us, or submitting works of poetry, fiction, photography, and just about anything else, check out the “contribute” section. We enjoy writing with each other, and we think you’ll like writing with us too.

Have a nice century!

xoxo

Joseph, Danielle and Daniel

We want your contributions!

We want your contributions! In fact, that’s what we’re all about.

We’re looking for culturally-related articles that are unique, relevant, and well-written. Culture’s a big, colorful umbrella, so submissions can range from politics to bathroom graffiti to ’80s television to aliens.

Personal essays are also welcome. We’re not going to fact-check these, so if you tell us about the time a giant branch fell and missed you by an inch, or the time your boss caught you watching porn, we’ll take your word for it.

We’re also accepting creative submissions, and encourage you to send over your very best works of short fiction, poetry, and photography. We’ll also be holding contests, with cash prizes, which you can always find posted on the main page. While our focus is on fiction, poetry and photography, we’re happy to accept all forms of art that can translate to the web: short plays, illustrations, music, short films, jokes, and so on.

Slow Century Magazine is about capturing this historical moment: what the living are doing. A simple task, really. But we can’t do it alone.

We look forward to writing with you.
