FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What is the word count per post?
We're flexible on word count, but between 600-1200 words is a good place to start.
Do I send in a story idea or a full draft?
We ask that members send an email with your pitch first. Once approved you can submit a full draft for our editor. ALL CONTENT MUST BE ORIGINAL.
Will I hear back if my submission isn’t accepted?
Our editor is constantly reviewing submissions, so you should receive a notification within 30 days of completing a submission, of whether your story has been accepted or not.
Do I have to include photos?
Original photography isn't required, but if you’re submitting a story that could be enhanced with personal photos (such as a beauty review, before-and-after story, experiment, or DIY), it has a greater chance of being published if you include them.
Can I publish my content somewhere else after it has gone up on Shades of Tatiana?
We ask that writers don’t republish original content that they write for Shades of Tatiana anywhere once it has been published on Shades of Tatiana. However, you are welcome to promote links to your content on shadesoftatiana.com on your social accounts and/or personal blog.

3) You may include original photography (1-2 images), but it isn't required.
4) Images must be high-resolution and be at least 1456 pixels wide.
5) The submission of a post does not guarantee it will be published on Shades of Tatiana. Our team will reach out if we’d like to run your story!
VOICE + TONE GUIDELINES
1) Be honest and authentic, and let your personality come through in your writing.
2) We welcome edgy topics, but please don’t resort to shock value.
3) If you wouldn't say something to your subject’s face, don't write it.
4) Your story should always provide a service to your reader.
5) Be clever in your writing but not salacious or snarky.
6) Use slang and abbreviations sparingly.
