A creative network from Thought Catalog

Frequently Asked Questions

General

What is Collective World?

Collective World is a creative network brought to you and powered by The Thought & Expression Company. Through Collective World you can submit work for publication, gain feedback on your writing, explore work by other creators, and so much more. Collective World is a revolutionary contributing network unlike anything else online, and we’re so excited about connecting with you and introducing new features in the future 🌎✨

Application Process

Why is my application still pending?

We have a small team working hard to get through thousands of applications. We do our best to get to applications as quickly as possible, and you’ll get an email from us once your application has been reviewed! 🎉

I’ve been approved, but why can’t I submit work?

Due to the number of applications we receive daily, we’re unable to approve everyone with the ability to submit. But by being a member of Collective World, you’ll be the first to hear when we open up the possibility of accepting submissions from new users.
