Some Writing Tips......

spelling and grammar should have been checked thoroughly before submission
the best articles are those that take a novel or unique perspective on a relevant subject/issue and explore it in depth.
humour is always appreciated
avoid using long sentences; if you read it out loud and it's taking too long to read, cut it into shorter sentences
if you make reference to a fact, statistic or statement, you should always quote the source of the information
avoid stating the obvious in an introductory paragraph; make your opening sentence punchy and direct
peer review can be helpful. Before submission, ask a friend to read over your article and make constructive criticisms. This can be particularly helpful if English is not your first language, so that it is clear what you are trying to say.
in addition to traditional articles, we will also accept other submissions such as photos, cartoons, humorous boxouts, top tips.
originality is important. What can you contribute that provides a truly unique perspective? We are most keen to receive articles that detail how you overcame those obstacles so that other people can benefit from your experience.
