Submissions Policies

Views
We accept submissions from our readers. However, we receive many more than we are able to publish. Unfortunately, due to the high volume, we are able to respond only to those submissions that interest us. We are a small non-profit and cannot pay for submissions.

Submissions should:

• Offer a unique progressive perspective
• Appeal to national and international readers
• Be concise. Please keep submissions to 1000 words or less.
• Be proofread by the author. Our small staff does not have time to edit submissions.
• Be submitted with a suggested headline
• Include a one- or two-line bio and your email address if you'd like us to include it.

Send to submissions@commondreams.org with the word "Submission" in the subject line.
