I’ve recently had a couple of queries regarding guest blogging at The Life and Times of a Freelance Writer, so I thought I would take the time to share my guest post policy.

Yes, I accept guest posts.

But there’s a catch. (Isn’t there always a catch?) The post needs to be at least remotely related to freelance writing, whether it includes business tips, writing craft explanations, funny rants, advice or something I didn’t think to list here. I started this blog with newbie freelance writers in mind, so anything that will help a shiny new freelance writer spread his or her stubby little bat wings is truly welcome. (Fiction writer friends,  poets, creative non-fictionistas, you guys are welcome to contribute as long as the post is about writing craft or another topic relevant to all writers.)

Other welcome topics include questions or speculation from new freelance writers, like this great post Vanessa Knauf shared with us a couple of weeks ago.

Finally, I reserve the right to turn down guest posts if they don’t meet my quality standards or reek of blatant self-promotion or product placement.

If you would like to guest post at Life and Times, simply contact me. You can pitch an idea or send over a guest post already fully formed. I’m not picky. Just don’t forget to include a bio and a link to your website or samples.

Got it? Good. Happy guest posting!
