Contributor Guidelines

For writers who prefer clear words, honest ideas, and no fluff.

Let’s Get Straight to It

We don’t like big talk. We don’t like content that feels like it was written by a robot. At The London Chronicle, we’re just looking for people who can write well and keep things simple. We cover a lot of topics. And we mean a lot: Arts, Automobiles, Business, Celebrities, Crime, Education, Entertainment, Fashion, Finance, Food, Games, Health, Home, Magazines, Movies, News, Politics, Real Estate, Science & Tech, Sports, Tips, Travel, and What’s Trending. If you’ve got something worth saying in any of those areas—and you can say it in a way that sounds natural and easy to follow—we want to hear from you.

What Makes a Good Piece

We don’t have a long list of complicated rules. But we do care about these things:

  • Write your own stuff. No copying. No spinning. Just your voice, your ideas, and your point of view.
  • Talk like a person. Write like you’re talking to someone over coffee. Not in a boardroom. Not like a textbook. Just real, easy language.
  • Keep it clear. Use short paragraphs. Use subheadings if it helps. Don’t overload your sentences. And please, no big blocks of text.
  • Get to the point. You don’t need to drag things out. Say what needs to be said, then stop. We usually like pieces that are somewhere between 700- 1,000 words, but that’s not a strict rule. If the story needs 600 words, that’s fine. If it needs 1,200, that’s fine too.
  • Use real examples. If you’re talking about trends, include a real one. If you’re giving tips, make sure they actually work. Keep it useful.

Things We Don’t Publish

Let’s be honest — here’s what doesn’t work for us:

  • Overused phrases and fake-sounding lines
  • Anything written just to rank on search engines
  • Lists packed with filler ideas
  • Forced jokes or dramatic intros
  • Anything that sounds like a sales pitch
  • Pieces written by AI or reworded from someone else’s blog

We also don’t publish content related to gambling, adult content, CBD, or similar areas. That’s not what we’re here for.

If You Want to Send Us Something

Here’s what we need from you:

  1. A quick pitch – Just tell us what you want to write about, and why it fits The London Chronicle. No big summaries needed.
  2. A sample, if you have one – It could be a past article, a blog, even just a short post. Helps us get to know your voice.
  3. Send it over – Email your pitch and sample to (your email here) with the subject line: Pitch – (Your Topic)

We try to reply to everyone within 3–4 working days. Sometimes faster.

Final Notes

If we accept your article, we may make small edits to fix typos or smooth things out. If it needs big changes, we’ll talk to you before publishing. And just so it’s clear — when you submit a piece and we agree to publish it, that content becomes part of The London Chronicle. You can’t repost it on your own blog or send it somewhere else afterward.

Thanks for Stopping By

We’re building a space for writing that feels honest and human again. No filters. No noise. Just stories worth reading. If you’ve got something to say, say it in your own voice. We’re listening.
