Writing Submissions
Submission steps for writers: (Note: We prefer receiving themed pitches for the blog via our email address, submissions@graciouslady.org)
1. We plan to live out the rest of our lives standing in the light of vulnerability and authenticity—-and we will embrace anyone who courageously meets us there. Our contributor's stories meet these raw feelings of being vulnerable and authentic. If you have a story to share, deep-advice to pass on, or a thought to express to our readers, and you feel it's a good fit for what The Gracious Lady stands for, please send us your submission pitch via email.
2. Submit your story ideas: this should include a 200 word abstract and any relevant website links. Please do not send full articles: if we like your idea, we'll continue the conversation then. If you have multiple ideas, please submit them in one email. Please send all submissions in the copy of the email. Do not submit in a Word Doc or other attachments.
3. In your email: write a short bio describing yourself, your writing style and why you wish to freelance for The Gracious Lady. Also please let us know if you have been previously published and, if so, where. (You don't have to be a previously published writer in order to write for us, but seeing samples of your writing on other platforms is a plus.) Please either provide a link to your previous work or attach samples as a .doc or .pdf.
*As a general policy, we cannot guarantee placement based on your abstract or outline, but we approve submissions on speculation. We will be in contact within a week via email if your pitch has been successful. Please keep in mind we currently do not offer compensation for online articles. These submissions are simply if you respect and believe in the message of this blog and would like to contribute and be a part of the Gracious Family.
Thank you! We can't wait to read your ideas.
