Article Structure

We would like your article to be between 400 and 700 words. However, we are willing to accept longer articles but they would need to be very detailed to justify the length.

May we suggest that you limit paragraphs to 3 sentences or fewer, bullet points and embolden subheadings are good for breaking up large groups of text.
