Expectations of Guest Writers

• Create original content
• If you’d like, you can repost an excerpt of your article on your blog, but we ask you not republish the whole post. Respond to comments on your posts quickly (and of course be respectful)
• Many of our blog posts are under 800 words, but if it takes more to write a great post we’re open to it.

Here are a few things we look for in blog posts and story pitches:

• Concreteness – The more specific a pitch is, the better. Many of our favorite posts use strong examples to illustrate each point.
• Clarity – We know you’re smart. But this isn’t a thesis. Your language should be clear and easily accessible.
• A New Take – We read a lot of online articles each day. We love coming across something fresh, or even a new take on a tired topic.
