Writing Guidelines:

Personal Style
Develop your voice, express your opinion, but be concrete in how you formed that opinion and distinguish the subjective from the objective. Your writing should display maturity and emphasize substance over attitude. But do personalize your writing; inject your life into your writing as appropriate. Search for a sense of place or a narrative.

Fact-Checking
Be thorough. If you are unsure of any facts in the article, please call this to our attention at the beginning of the article. We can help you verify the facts or remove them from the article.

Style
Use italics for titles of recordings, videos, books, films, and television programs.

Title and Images
Every article must include a suggested title and include at least 2 supporting images.
