SUBMISSION GUIDELINES FOR THE BLOG

 

1. Content can be original or republished

Depending on where your work has been published, we are happy to republish your work here on iamarockstar.me as long as you have the rights to republish your article. We will always link back to the original article. Of course we are always looking for new work and would love to also share with our readers original content.

2. Word count.

The preferred length of a post is between 700 and 1500 words, in a Word/ Pages document, and if you need to include links, please make them relevant to the article itself. Do not simply post a link in order to point our readers to your site.

If you’re going to offer tips, include a short introductory paragraph at the top of your post explaining why you’re offering this advice. Are you an expert on the topic? Did you struggle to understand the issue and want to share your knowledge?

If you need to use links to any scientific proof, research, that can backup or even enhance your credibility as an author, feel free to use them. But  please note that we reserve the right to use this information only if suited.

3.Use your own unique tone

A beautiful and inspiring post will sound like a real person wrote it, and it needs to have a distinctive voice, meaning that the message you are sending out should be written in the same manner you would speak to a good friend of yours, a loved one.  You could use that similar conversational tone when you write your post.

Chose a topic that resonates with the targeted audience of the I AM A ROCKSTAR’s blog to help you in your creation process.

**If you are a rockstar topics may include: Personal growth, Stories of Resilience, Healing, Coping tools, Life skills, friendships, what has worked for you in your healing journey!

**If you are a health care professional and would like to share about a modality for the treatment of trauma and well being such as mental health, yoga, energy healing, etc. please share with us! We are looking for articles focused on hope and healing!

Keep in mind that before submitting a blog post, you need to make sure that the text is grammatically correct and typo-free. By doing so you will also increase your article’s chance of standing out and being published.
