Columnist Application | Privacy Statement Submit Article (You Must Be a Current Columnist) These guidelines are to assist both you the writer, and Real Divas to assure a consistently high quality of product, as well as ensure that duplication of materials does not occur. The Guidelines are not intended to limit or inhibit, rather, to ensure clarity of expectations in advance. This frees you to research, create and write with the knowledge that your articles will be well received by both Real Divas and, most importantly, its viewers. Writing for Real Divas is quite different than for the printed medium. The ability to include images, video, sound, and color, and the ability to link a word or phrase to a different section, page or article, combine to provide you with a creative canvas with unlimited potential for expression and development. Articles published on the Internet must use a particular formatting called HTML, which has some stylistic and formatting limitations. If these limitations affect your submission, we will explore alternatives with you. You do not need to know or use HTML. Real Divas will adapt the formatting of your article for you. Length:
Short Articles - are between 500 and 750 words. Images that are submitted with your article must be in either GIF or JPG format. If no image is submitted with your article then none will be used. Color or black and white are acceptable. Images with good resolution and high contrast are best. Real Divas can work with most word processing formats. Either Apple or Dos/Windows based programs can be imported by us. We do prefer Word or WordPerfect file types for written materials and JPG, GIF formats for images. Electronic submission is welcomed via inclusion or attachment to an E-Mail. E-Mail to: Editorial Board at columns@realdivas.net The richness of Real Divas as a source of information is due in part to the varying styles our writers bring to the site. You have your own style, and we expect that you will continue to use your own "voice". My best advise is to Be concise, Be imaginative, Be descriptive, Be inventive. The reader is depending upon you to provide them with as full and rich an experience as you can give them. By having Real Divas publish your article(s), Real Divas retains only the right to electronically publish and maintain the article. You own it. We require that all
content be original material. Where outside material is used, all normal
attributions, credits and permissions to use must be adhered to or obtained.
Copyright is important to all writers, and to Real Divas.
