Submission Guidelines for “Thirty over Fifty”
You must be 50 years of age or over at the time of applying to be a Writer for “Thirty over Fifty.” This Publication is for older people to share their learned wisdom to uplift and support and inform others with lived experiences and in ways that add to our spiritual growth.
Please note that the following topics are not accepted:
Politics (about your views on political parties and strategies)
Sex
Violence (in terms of graphic violent content in either fiction or non-fiction)
Anything that is clearly or heavily prejudiced or discriminatory
Limit your use of swearing in your articles to one, if you have to use a swear word. You can disguise a word too, e.g. sh** but consider using alternative words.
Graphic details of illnesses, medical treatment and health conditions are not accepted. It’s okay to give general overview information that supports your story content and theme, but we don’t need to know the gory or upsetting details.
No pushing of religious viewpoints/God, meaning that 30 O 50 is not the place to persuade readers to become religious, i.e. to rely upon “God” for answers to their problems. Letting readers know that your belief in God helps you is okay, but not telling people that they must believe in God to get ahead.
Thirty over Fifty is NOT for rants. So no rambling or venting personal journal type stories or diary entries with no widespread appeal or take-away, and no opinion pieces stated as facts.
Do not be overly biased, i.e do not submit an article that is not supported by facts. You can give your opinion calmly and factually while also uplifting and supporting readers.
