Here are our article guidelines:
-
Read the existing blog posts on Retire By 45 to help you write to our audience.
-
Suggested word count is usually ballpark of 800 - 1000 words, but shorter or longer is always fine as long as you feel you’ve kept the readers’ interest.
-
Write as you would write a letter to your best friend. If you like something, be detailed. If you are negative, be fair. Always begin from the ground up: who, what, where, why, when. Keep it accessible—don’t assume knowledge on the reader’s part. Don’t dumb it down—feel free to go in-depth—just define and explain as you go, and keep it fun or serious as appropriate.
-
Your personal photos are encouraged - at least 700px wide. You can also send videos or embed codes to videos you've uploaded to Youtube.
-
If you use 3rd party photos, make sure to use non-copyrighted images found through photo sharing sites like Flickr, Creative Commons or Wikimedia, and credit the photo like this: Photo: [name].
-
Include a brief, fun, third person bio (include email or web address, Twitter, Facebook or Instagram—we’ll link to you!).
