Do you connect with the topics discussed on Alternatively Speaking? Do you have something to contribute that you believe will resonate with the community? Great news! We are currently accepting a limited number of writers interested in guest posting! 

Current Topics of Interest Include:

Green/Environmentally-Friendly Living

Alternative Fashion 

Due to the large number of pitches that I receive on an ongoing basis, all interested contributors are asked to include a specific topic or post idea with their pitch. This will allow me to assess which topics are going to resonate most effectively with the Alternatively Speaking community. This will set us both up for success! Priority will be given to those topics that connect with the alternative theme of the blog. 

Please read the guest posting guidelines below prior to reaching out to discuss the opportunity further.

By sending a pitch, you are agreeing to the listed guidelines and requirements. Failure to comply with these guidelines will lead to the rejection of a post, preventing it from being published. If you are confused by any of the listed guidelines or have questions related to them, I would be happy to answer them.

Spelling and grammar are important. All posts should be proofread prior to submission and fully formatted including the use of headlines, appropriate organic links (no affiliate links unless approved in advance) and emphasized text.
