Every Sunday, we will post a new Weekly Word that will be the writing topic for all submissions (some examples are RISK, FEAR, HOPE, LOVE etc.). Anyone is free to submit an essay that relates to that week’s Word. All selected pieces will be posted on our Facebook and Instagram from Monday to Sunday of the following week. A new word will be selected every week.

Here are a few things you need to know before submitting:

~ Submissions can be sent to thewklycreative@gmail.com or in the submission form  below.

~ All essays must follow the guidelines below or the submission will not be considered:

       Length is 350 words or less – no exceptions.

       With emails, essays are to be placed directly in the body.

       The subject line must contain the Weekly Word.

       A picture or image is required that relates to the essay.

       All content must be original and cannot be owned by another publication/person. 

~ By submitting an essay and picture to us, you are verifying you own the rights. 

~ The current topic/Word will be shown in our social media Profile Pictures. Once the picture is changed, we will no longer be accepting submissions for the previous week’s Word.

~ Essays can be credited to the writer or posted anonymously.

~ All selected pieces will receive an email confirmation with a request for final approval. If a new Word is posted and you have not received a response, we ask that you submit a new piece or resubmit later.

The Weekly Creative wants to hear from people of all backgrounds and points-of-view. We truly believe that every single one of us has a story worth telling, and we cannot wait to hear form you! Wes
