Submission Guidelines
by ccp on Feb.18, 2009, under Contact Us
Columbia City Paper welcomes submissions.
We publish investigative journalism (local and national fare) and informative humor. Feature stories run from 1,200 to 2,000 words. Music, arts, theater, articles and news briefs generally run from 500-800 words. That said, we’re more concerned with good writing and daring journalism than word count. Sometimes accept previously published material (if published outside our market). Simultaneous submissions are okay.
We recommend that you read a few back issues online to familiarize yourself with the paper.
Please query with an article proposal via email before submitting a manuscript. Send queries to submissions at columbiacitypaper.com, attn: Paul Blake, with “CCP Submission†or “Query†in the subject field.
Payment: varies and will be finalized before publication. Most writing is currently done pro bono.
Accepted material is published an average of two weeks to one month after acceptance. No kill fee offered at this time.
If we think that a particular idea doesn’t quite fit with us, just try again with something else.
We do not publish press releases.
Thanks for your interest in Columbia City Paper!
