If we haven’t made this abundantly clear, we love our Greenville community. Seriously, we think y’all are the coolest, and because we think so highly of you, we want to hear your stories.
Recently, we published a contributing piece from Don Oglesby about affordable housing in Greenville, and we learned so much about the topic. It’s stories like this that keep us eager to learn more, and we want you to write them.
How to submit a story
○ Write a story about a topic you love or know a lot about. We want the full story when you submit, not the idea or the outline.
○ Go here + fill out the form with your name, social media handles (if you have ‘em), and upload your text and photos. Please be sure you have permission to use the photos you send us, and if you didn’t take them, let us know who to credit.
Stories we want
○ We’re looking for passion pieces. Maybe you’re a cyclist and you have ideas for how to make Greenville a friendlier place for bikes. Maybe you’re a musician and want to share what the Upstate’s music scene looks like. Or maybe your great-grandma passed down a story about Greenville that should be told.
○ Please include links in your story so readers can click out if they want more context on the subject. See our newsletter for examples on how this is done.
○ We love photos + videos, and the more the better. Just please make sure we know who to credit.
○ Keep your story to 500 words or less. This doesn’t mean we won’t publish longer stories, but be conscious of your word count.
We look forward to hearing from you, GVL.
