We are happy to welcome writers & industry professionals to the blog! However, due to the sheer amount of requests we receive, we are selective in the content that appears. Here are some tips that might determine if we are the right fit for you:
- We are an education-focused resource blog for writers. Posts we accept target an aspect of Writing, Publishing, Marketing or Promotion and offers fresh insight to our readers.
- We do not openly promote, except in the rare circumstance.
- Occasionally we will review books that appeal to us, but often we just don't have time (sorry!)
- Publicists, please do not send us books unsolicited, or send form letters inviting us to review. Take the time to understand who we are and what our blog focuses on.
