Guidelines for Submission
- Submissions should provide useful, relatable tips or solutions on topics such as personal growth, DIY projects, lifestyle hacks, or overcoming adversity.
- Your post must be unique and unpublished elsewhere. We do not accept reprints or content intended for SEO or promotional purposes.
- Keep your submission under 1,000 words. Use clear language, short paragraphs, and bullet points where necessary to enhance readability.
- Posts should be well-written with proper spelling, grammar, and punctuation. Submissions requiring extensive edits will not be considered.
- Include only relevant, valid links. Promotional or irrelevant links will be removed. You may include one link to your website or social media in your bio.
- Attach high-quality images where applicable. Ensure you have the right to use them and credit the source if necessary.
