Please follow these guidelines:
Articles should be between 500–1,000 words.
Submissions must be original and unpublished elsewhere.
If you get help from a Generative AI assistant, you must run it through a plagiarism checker and take responsibility for making any necessary changes to ensure content is original and truthful.
Offer readers insight, news, information – stay away from making it into a sales pitch. Your goal is to educate. Write in a conversational, accessible tone. Explain things like you would to a neighbor at a BBQ who has no idea what you do. Avoid excessive jargon or marketing language — our readers are residents seeking practical advice and inspiration.
Please provide short, catchy title. It’s a good idea to mention the specific topic you are addressing so it’s easy for people to spot. For example – if you are submitting an article about insomnia – be sure to include the word “insomnia” or “sleep” in the title.
