Submissions: Write for 19FortyFive
The following serve as our submission guidelines.
Please note: the closer you follow the below, the higher the chance your submission will be accepted for publication.
The Basics:
We accept articles that offer detailed analysis on topics involving, but not limited to:
Foreign Policy
National Security
Military and Defense Issues
Technology
Economics
Energy
Note: 19FortyFive does not cover domestic
All drafts should be between 400-1500 words in TOTAL length (before biographical information, more on that in a moment).
While we accept longer-form pieces, please note that we currently highly discourage such submissions.
We also expect that all content has biographical information at the end of each piece.
Please also provide a link to any critical professional affiliation you might wish to highlight and your social media contact information.
All pieces should be original and exclusive to 19FortyFive.
What We Look For:
We do not have a specific style of an article we tend to accept–we don’t believe in rigid editorial guidelines or editors that send endless revisions–but we want your ideas to prove the worthiness of publication.
All pieces should also have links to source information, links to quotes if used in the pieces, and a healthy dose of other links to relevant information. By doing this, your chances of acceptance are enhanced dramatically.
Please send all submissions to Beth at 19fortyfive.com. Kindly provide us five business days to review your content (we are closed on all U.S. federal holidays). If you do not hear from us at the close of business on the third day, please feel free to take your content elsewhere.
Fact-Checking Policy:
19FortyFive does everything we can to check any pertinent facts in any submission we receive.
All submissions are checked for accuracy in every possible way; however, please note that we are not experts in all topics and subjects. We do however reserve the right to reject an article based on an author not providing documentation when asked for or if we are unable to document or cite important information.
Our goal is to be as accurate as possible, recognizing we are human and that mistakes can happen.
