Submission rules

Skinny is Best shares non-fiction articles about weight loss, diets, your diet lifestyle, fitness and exercise when considering weight loss, and anything related to weight loss including your reviews of a diet that you have tried.

Submissions are accepted from Medium partnership members only. Articles self-published on your Medium profile are also accepted but not if they have been published in a publication.

Please note: You must not delete an article and then republish it on your profile and then send it to us as that will be a violation of Medium’s rules. You must not publish the same article twice on Medium.

Submission guidelines

Please read the Medium rules before submitting your article. Follow the Medium curation guidelines before you send your work here.

All newly written work should be submitted in draft form only and try not to publish it on your Medium profile first. Although we accept previously published work from your Medium profile we still do prefer newly written work first (that means even if it has been published on your blog).

Photo guidelines

Read the photo guidelines and the setting out guidelines there. You can use your own photos but if you do make sure you state it’s your photo underneath the image. Use Unsplash when you need a photo by clicking the plus sign in the space and clicking on the ‘add an image from Unsplash’ button to find an image. Unsplash is preferred if you do not use your own photos. Read this article on how to access Unsplash photos within your draft. Be advised — if you do not add an image caption your photo will be changed to an Unsplash photo of our choosing!

Articles needed

Articles from 350 words and over are accepted. You can write about your experience with any diet that has been tried by yourself. News on anything related to weight loss, in general, is also accepted. Please take a look at what has already been published to get a feel of what Skinny is Best is about.
