A few guidelines for article submissions

• We're looking for writing that speaks about life at the intersection of motherhood and creativity.
• It's best if the articles are between 500- 1200 words, though we'll make exceptions for particularly strong pieces.
• Submissions can be previously published (as long as we can get permission to republish).
• Unfortunately we cannot pay at this time however we will link to your site, promote via social media and in our newsletter.
• You will maintain the rights for your work.
• We may ask to edit your work slightly, but will always ask for permission first.
• We are not interested in general parenting articles — sorry! It's us, not you!

If you have an idea for an article but aren't quite sure, feel free to run the idea by us and we'll let you know if it's a good fit!
