Guest Posting Guidelines

From time to time, I get requests from folks who’d like to write something for Anywhereist.

I’m delighted to accept guest posts that meet some basic guidelines.

1. Your article or post must be about some aspect of living, working, or thriving in a new place. Personal accounts — especially your story about the experience of moving abroad, or about how you support yourself overseas — will be looked at very favorably.
2. It must be original — your own work. Plagiarism will not be tolerated, and if any question of authorship arises, I will remove the article.
3. It must be ours exclusively to publish for at least 90 days.
4. Your article should be conversational in tone, and around 600-800 words in length.
5. I prefer to receive submissions as shared Google documents.
6. I reserve the right to edit anything before it’s published.
7. Include a brief (3 or 4 sentences) biography, with a photo of yourself if you’d like, and a link back to your own site. Feel free to include relevant links within the body of the article, but understand I may not keep them all. Affiliate links or links to items you’re selling are not appropriate here.
8. If you have an image you’d like to include in the body of the article, please attach it as either a .jpg or a .png file. You must have the right to publish the image!
9. Ideally, the article should provide food for thought and/or some concrete steps others might take.
10. We don’t do rants or diatribes. If you have a bone to pick, this isn’t the right venue.

Here are a few examples of guest posts you can look at:

• Travels in Bhutan: The Last Shangri-La
• Living in the Land of Love
