Summary

Good Vibes Club is inviting writers to submit positive, inspirational content following specific guidelines updated in September 2023, with a focus on spreading joy and prohibiting hateful material.

Abstract

The Good Vibes Club is actively seeking submissions from writers who wish to contribute to a publication centered on positivity and joy. The guidelines, which were revised in September 2023 and take effect from October 1, 2023, stipulate that writers should only submit one piece per day and ensure that any stories submitted have not been previously published within the last 48 hours. The publication is interested in a variety of content, including life lessons, personal stories, inspirational pieces, poetry, writing prompts, tips for positive living, and book reviews that inspire or change lives. Writers are encouraged to follow the publication, comment on the submission article, and adhere to Medium's curation guidelines. There are no strict word count or read time requirements, but each submission should have a title, subtitle, at least one credited image, and be well-edited. AI-written articles are not accepted, but AI-assisted artwork is permissible with proper credit. The publication emphasizes a no-hate policy and requires that submissions be tagged with 'Good Vibes Club' along with four other topics of the writer's choice. The expected turnaround time for editorial feedback is 24-48 hours.

SUBMISSION GUIDELINES

1. Follow and subscribe to Good Vibes Club.

2. Comment on this article with ‘add me as a writer’.

3. Read Medium’s guidelines here.

4. Good Vibes Club doesn’t have a minimum or maximum word count or read time. You know your story. You know what you want to write.

5. Have a title and subtitle.

6. Have at least one image, at the top, underneath the subtitle. Credit all images please.

7. Edit and polish before submission. We may do some light editing. If there are any major concerns or questions, we’ll leave you a note on the piece. Except for poetry. Good Vibes Club doesn’t profess to know the first thing about poetic expression. So, if that’s the style of something you write for us, we trust you on this one and will publish as is, if accepted.

8. NO AI WRITTEN ARTICLES! AI assisted artwork is permissible as long as the image is property credited.

9. One firm rule — No hate. No bashing. No ugliness. But we doubt we need to tell you that. If you’re reading this and wanting to submit something, we know you’re looking for the good in life and not the nastiness.

10. Five topics are allowed. Please make one of them ‘Good Vibes Club’ — the other four can be any you choose.

11. Only one submission per day please, to allow enough editing time for the others submitting stories too.

12. No previously published stories over 48 hours old. We understand that sometimes we hit publish too soon, and then you decided you want to send here. But the published stories keep their initial publishing date. So if you send a story that’s a week or six weeks old, that’s where they stay in the line up. After October 1st — no previously published stories over 48 hours old.

Turn around time is expected to be within 24–48 hours. (I have a ‘day job’ too, so need to work my Medium editing time around that and am not available here 24/7)

If you have any questions, please add a note here, or you can email me at: [email protected].

Thank you for considering writing something for Good Vibes Club. We appreciate having you in the Club!
