Well, It’s none of the following:
verdical ughten, vital undergarment, victorious umbrella, vitreous uphorn, very underdone, vocal undertone, Veronica's upstairs, vasculum unlocked …..

Please read all of this. We promise it is easy!

Send an email to: thebarak @ the-vu .com (no spaces please)

Include the following:

  1. Article title
  2. Author name
  3. Body of article
  4. Placeholders for any photos
  5. Image files
  6. Author’s Biography
  7. Author’s picture (optional)

Notes on above:

  1. Keep it short, Subtitles are acceptable also.
  2. You must really be the author of the material. You may use a pseudonym.
  3. Body of article. Word for word how you want it to appear. We reserve the right to alter spellings to American English (forgive us!) please do not SHOUT IN CAPITAL LETTERS or use underlines or italics for emphasis. Please remember that people around the world may not understand local slang. Swearing is okay. We are not moral censors. Your article can be very short or very long. Few rules apply.
  4. Placeholders: If you want, for example, a picture file named lotus11.jpg to appear between two paragraphs, type <lotus11.jpg> in that position in your article.
  5. Before you email us any pictures, use your own software to make them small. We need them to be smaller than 400 pixels on the longer side and medium quality is good enough. We reserve the right to make them even smaller if necessary but we would much rather you took care of all that. Attach the image files to your email and remember they have to match the filenames in your placeholders.
  6. Your biography can be a few words or a couple of paragraphs. Not very long please. It is not compulsory to provide one and it need not be the truth.
  7. If you provide an author’s picture, it must not be another person, and make it very small, maximum 150 pixels on the longer side. This picture is optional and not required.

Guidelines:

  • Please make it interesting and rewarding to read! Please avoid bulleted or numbered lists of instructions or advice (like the one above) and please don’t assume the role of a teacher, therapist or doctor or affect an air of superiority over your readers. Your article can be as short or as long as you like.
  • Please use common fonts such as arial, times, courier etc. No fancy ones that make your apostrophes become unrecognized characters etc. Better yet, paste your article into a text editor and convert it to plain text to strip all the rubbish code out.
  • Please do not include tables in articles. We cannot reproduce tables on the website.

We look forward to receiving your writings!
