Your reflection, your ritual, your knowing, there is space for it here.

✍🏾 KINNECT Submission Guidelines


KINNECT is a sacred container.


It is not a platform for perfection, it is an archive of the lived, the embodied, the relational, and the real.

Submissions are not judged by academic polish, formal credentials, or grammar.

We care about integrity, intention, and alignment with our ethos.



What We Welcome


We accept contributions from anyone who embodies or works within the realms of:

Kink-informed mental health

Somatic practice and embodiment

Pro-practitioner space holding

Community healing

Ritual, lineage, and liberatory knowledge.


Submissions may fall into one or more of the following forms:


Reflections


Personal essays, lived experiences, spiritual or healing journeys, moments of insight or transformation


Case Vignettes


De-identified or composite stories from clinical, coaching, or pro practice; especially those that highlight power, trauma healing, or embodied change


Rituals + Protocols


Practices you’ve used or created to support healing, regulation, embodiment, sacred scenes, or spiritual connection


Audio / Video Offerings


Guided practices, interviews, scene breakdowns, spoken reflections, movement-based content


Glossary Terms


Reclaimed language, community-rooted concepts, or words you’ve defined through your own framework.


Creative Work

Feel free to share your role (clinician, pro, survivor, etc.), your work, or simply your truth.



How We Review


Submissions are reviewed by a small circle of aligned readers.

You will receive a response within 2–3 weeks.

Feedback will be gentle, reflective, and offered only with care.

You retain full ownership of your work, we ask for permission to host it here and celebrate it as part of this living archive.
