Contributions
If you would like to contribute to the
Sentinal, here are some guidelines:
1.
Size Doesn't Matter. Honest. Doesn't matter how long or short your
piece is.
2. If it isn't your original work, say so. Credit
where credit is due.
3.
I won't put deadlines on you if you don't put them on me (read: no
bitching if it takes 2 months for your article to appear).
4.
No Flaming. None. I will not publish personal attacks on private
parties. If you want to criticize the president, the government, law
enforcement, movie stars, manufacturers, etc- great. But if your
article is a dissertation on the personality flaws and body odor of
your brother-in-law Bob, forget about it.
5. Your contribution does not have to be about motorcycles. If
something is interesting to you, it probably is to other people.
6. I'll take most submissions. Articles, cartoons,
tastless jokes, whatever. At this time I am very interested in coverage of
rides. If you go on a great one, tell me about it. Include pictures, if
you can. If (enter club name here) does a poker run and you had a
blast, I'd like to hear about it. If you found some particularly tasty
twisties on some back road, inquiring minds want to know. If a benefit
ride had the best BBQ you've ever tasted- well, you get the idea.
7. No, you won't get paid. This sucker is free. BUT- if
you've got something you want to advertise, I'll be happy to put it up,
no charge.
8. I don't edit for content. I do edit for spelling,
punctuation and grammer. That shit drives me nuts. Thrill me- run a
damn spell check.
