What We Are Looking For In Writers
DoorCountyStyle.com is especially interested in top-notch writers who can speak about their adventures or discoveries in Door County. We like a variety of articles from those that have a business or news approach (i.e. press release) to those that are more casual in nature. Our readers also enjoy “how to” articles. Above all, we strive to provide our visitors with articles and editorials that are informative to read while providing useful information to assist in their exploration of the Peninsula.
Study the articles we already have posted on our site. You will find a mixture of topics pertaining to the arts, history and nature of Door County. Look at the website, see what we have and look for what you feel we may be missing – chose areas where you are most knowledgeable to create topics and angles for stories. If you need some quotes or insight from a particular company or individual, let us know and we’ll put you in contact with them. If you are not sure about an article subject, e-mail us first and we’ll provide you some feedback. If you introduce a problem or challenge in your article, then provide ideas or your point of view on how to solve it. Submissions MUST be neutral and unbiased (it can’t read like a sales pitch!)
