We often get contacted by people wanting to write something or help in some way. While we’re not officially looking for any new staff, we’ll definitely accept any article submissions you might have. See the notes and instructions below.

A few notes on submitting articles:

We might not post it.

Don’t take it personally, as we’re flattered someone wants to take the time to put something together. Unfortunately, if we don’t find the content relevant, appropriate, or…good, we’ll have to pass.

We might edit it.

Maybe you should be flattered by this. You’ll be just like those schmucks at the New York Times getting your material shredded by an unprofessional copy editor. If something’s a bit long, a bit too personal (e.g. “My ex-wife Rebecca Black works at Baskin-Robbins weekdays 7AM-3PM and is a giant whore), or whatever other reason we think of, we’ll appropriately chop and edit to accomodate. Also, we’ll try to fix spelling/grammar.

Guidelines

If you want to submit an article, e-mail us an attachment at admin@clarksvillewtf.com (or use the form on the Contact page).

We need:

Name: We mean what you want to go by. If you want to use your real name, great. I’ve been on the Internet too long, so I’m used to usernames.

Your e-mail: We’ll leave it out of the article, but we have to be able to contact you if we have a question.

(Optional) Brief Bio: I’m talking one sentence here.

An Article: Write up an article about something in Clarksville that makes you say “WTF?” Make it long enough so it isn’t just a children’s nursery rhyme but short enough so it isn’t a manifesto to blow up a government building. Keep really personal stuff out (see “We Might Edit It” above), and don’t bother writing an article about “Why Black/White/Gay/Lebanese People Suck…” It won’t get posted.

You no make a ‘da money…

We don’t pay for articles. We don’t pay for pictures. We only pay for Chinese buffet and Super Chimichanga’s. You are not entitled to any royalties, scrilla, ducats, piles of Scrooge McDuck’s gold coins…whatever.

Anyway, thanks for stopping by and considering being a part of the CWTF family. We love you like a second cousin in Tennessee.
