Lisle, Newsletter Submission Guidelines (5/05)
Articles
- The editorial staff will edit for grammar, spelling, sense/flow, and content as deemed necessary, keeping the author's voice and story as intact as possible. In other words, what you send may not be exactly what will be ultimately printed. The editors reserve the right to reject objectionable material.
- Microsoft Word is the preferred software program to use.
- Length: 700 words.
- SPELL CHECK! SPELL CHECK! SPELL CHECK! And, since we can't know how to spell all personal
names, be sure YOU spell them correctly.
- Do not bold or italicize words. That's our job. If you want to emphasize something, underline it and we will incorporate the emphasis into the final style.
- You can email the articles. Attach them to your email message. Or, write them within your email program and send them as an email document.
Poetry
- We have the space for short poetry, not epic sagas! Poems should relate to experiences, inner and outer, that occurred during your Lisle units.
- Be sure to indicate if the poem should be centered or left-justified.
Photos
- You can submit printed photographs by mail.
- Be sure each photo is labeled as to unit, date, location, persons in photo, activity shown.
- Also put your name, address and phone # on each photo.
- These will be returned to you when the issue is completed.
- You can submit photo files taken on your digital camera.
- Please email the original and unaltered JPG. Or, mail them on a CD.
- Entitle each photo file briefly
- Refer to that title in an email and include information as to unit, date, location, persons in photo, activity shown for each file.
- Please send photos you've already critiqued for clarity, focus and composition. If they are fuzzy to you, they will be fuzzier when printed.
