Dear Esteemed Writers,
You are the pulsating core of GG Gatsby! We extend our deepest gratitude for sharing your enriching experiences with us.
Our platform eagerly anticipates the publication of your narratives and encourages you to inspire your circle to share their own tales.
Fear Not to Share! Whether this marks your inaugural submission or you wield the pen as a seasoned editor, your presence is cherished. While we retain the prerogative to refine your submissions to align with the overarching voice and tone of our website, we wholeheartedly embrace bold personal narratives. Spicy tales? Absolutely welcome. Constructive critiques? Bring them forth!
Refinement is Key We encourage you to present your piece in a polished form, akin to a final draft rather than an initial attempt. Prior to submission, we recommend seeking feedback from friends or family. Given our online presence, remember that brevity reigns supreme—conciseness is the essence of online content.
*We seek submissions within the range of 500 – 1500 WORDS.
Illustrations Accompany Published Pieces! Upon selection of your work, we will request accompanying digital imagery.
*Please ensure images are in jpeg format and no larger than 1 megabyte. Kindly refrain from embedding images into your Word document; submit them separately.
GG Gatsby’s Writer’s Checklist:
- Submit a refined piece within the 500 – 1500 word range.
- Upon selection, prepare companion images as we do not publish stories without them.
- Share a spirited photograph of yourself!
- Provide concise biographical information.
- Include contact details for places referenced. Should you mention a delightful eatery in Delhi, furnish its address and website. As an information hub, if we can’t send our Divas there, it’s off our radar.
Patience is Key. You may not receive immediate feedback or see your article live on our site for several weeks. We may reserve it for an upcoming special thematic issue, such as a Fashion or Shopping Edition. Rest assured, we haven’t overlooked you. Hang in there. We refrain from individual inquiries about article status.
Syndication Policy: Get ready for syndication! GG Gatsby reserves the right to republish your piece with any of our partners.
GG Gatsby eagerly awaits your submissions. Our world extends to yours, and we wholeheartedly welcome your world into ours. Long live the writers of GG Gatsby!
