Writer's Guidelines: Journey Ezine
Only send one (1) article at a time, but feel free to send more than one article for consideration. It is much easier for our editors to evaluate submissions if they are sent in individually. 
- Please send original articles only - stories or articles YOU have written. Do not send forwards from the internet or copy someone else's articles from the internet, no matter how heart-warming they may be. We want our readers to have the pleasure of fresh, new reading material ... articles that will bless, encourage, and even challenge. By submitting articles to our editor, you are stating that you are indeed the original author. Plagiarism will NOT be tolerated.
- Before you submit an article, use the search provided on this site to insure that your article hasn't already been published in our ezine.
- Send your submission(s) to journey@womenofpassions.net.
- All articles should be less than 1,000 words. Although this is not a firm rule and your submission will not be rejected only because of its length, it helps us if you will use some form of word counting program to help stay within the limit. Why do we ask for a limit? It's been proven that readers are much more apt to read a shorter article than a longer one. People's attention spans generally will not allow them to stay focused for articles over 750-1000 words. We want your work to be a blessing to others so please keep this in mind.
- Please send your submission as a Microsoft Word document as an attachment to your email. To date, we have had submissions in various formats and if our editors are unable to open your submission, they simply reject it. If you do not have Word, contact our editor for suggestions.
- So many times we receive submissions without a cover letter, including minimal information at best. Please help us out by including a brief bio (if your bio has not already been published on Journey. Also include a picture to include with your bio. We do our best to provide each new author their own bio page (see Author Profiles). It helps us tremendously if you will provide the information you would like to have included in your bio. We can no longer track you down to get information. If you don't submit it on your own, we won't be able to give you a Profile page.
- By submitting an article for inclusion in a future issue of Journey, you are giving us permission to make minor editorial changes. Any article requiring extensive editing will be rejected. Have someone proof your work before submission.
- As the original author of your article published on Journey, you retain the copyrights.
We are so honored that you're interested in writing for Journey. We want to encourage you to submit articles you've written even if you're not a "writer". If you have something to share, write! Writing is a gift God gives us to communicate His love, His mercy, and His faithfulness. Your story may be the very thing someone needs to read to bring them encouragement.
Please make note that we only accept articles from the Christian perspective. Any article using vulgar or harsh language, or sexual or offensive material will automatically be rejected with no explanation. This ezine is published to bring Glory to God and Encouragement to His people!
