Submit an Article

Interested in writing an article for the Douglas County Business Magazine?  Great!  

Anyone can submit an article for consideration.  There are four basic rules that must be followed when writing your article.  Your article CANNOT be:

  • Offensive
  • Defamatory
  • Pornographic
  • Overtly self serving 

Our readers enjoy articles that are fun, entertaining and informative.  We are not a newspaper and are not looking for hard news or standard press releases so please don't submit either.  Articles submitted to us should be concerned with the "Why" and "How" not so much the "Who, What, When and Where".

If you have a good idea for an article or would like to share a story, then please feel free to do so.  Articles should be between 400 and 1,000 words (a little more, a little less is OK) and should have a relationship to our local Douglas County business community or have a great topic.

Once you've written your article, be sure and proof read it for grammar and spelling errors.  It also helps to have several friends look it over and give you input on your article.  If other people find it enjoyable and informative, we probably will too.

We keep all submitted articles on file for future consideration, so you will only need to submit an article once.  Also, we do not compensate for any unsolicited article so please keep that in mind when submitting your work.

If you are ready to start, then provide the information below.
