How To Become A Contributor

Also see Article Guidelines for more essential information.

Easy- To submit an article, the contributor must e-mail his original work to our Managing Editor :Alice C. Bateman, or to our Webmaster: :Clive Michie. Each day the articles in each genre are updated. You will not have to wait five months for a magazine to, maybe, publish your article. You send it on Tuesday and unless there is a power outage, your article will be on this website within 48 hours.

Any writer gets original articles or poems published free.

Advantages

Regular Contributors may publish as much and often as they wish and know that their articles are being read and evaluated by a growing audience. (We evaluate how many actual visitors we have by the number of critiques we get on a weekly basis. (During the week of March 1-August 7 we had 138 critiques.)

Regulars also get the choice of having their own folder and a review page with just their works listed. They will see critiques updated weekly on our critiques page, and they will get weekly updates as to how many points they have accumulated. However, one other advantage is that substantial critiques are sent directly to Regular Contributors. Another advantage, especially for teen authors, is that The Writers' Voice may be used as a reference for scholarship applications. Also, the Writers' Voice will link its site to any Contributor who wishes the link.

Of course, if you have a web page, your own site already does this; however, the number and variety of readers who visit the Writers' Voice on a daily basis gives our writing club and regular contributors a more diverse group of writers and reviewers than most personal web sites. If a writer just wants to have just one submission, that is perfectly all right with us and you will not be pressured to become a regular contributor. We want our Regulars to become our friends who feel comfortable with the service we provide but also come back and review and submit often.

Rewarding- Any regular contributor's article that reaches 5-star Legend Status will earn a Special Web Page Showcase for that piece. There is no limit to how many legends a contributor can have in a year.

More importantly than becoming a legend, each contributor will have the satisfaction of seeing his article published with the knowledge that his or her article may be read by a huge audience. The speed in which the article can be published will make current-event articles very attractive.
