Guidelines and format for The Journal of Bloglandia (ISSN 1940-7645). These guidelines are subject to modification.
The Journal of Bloglandia is a print compilation of non-fiction blog posts on a variety of subjects, including left leaning politics. These could include essays, reviews, interviews, histories, analysis, original comics and illustrations, some poetry (maybe), or whatnot. Please use one of the templates below. I’d prefer MS Word, but I know not everyone uses it. Please edit and proof your submission before you submit it, J Bloglandia won’t do any editing or proofing, so it would be good if your submission was as close to perfect as possible when it gets here. Authors retain their copyright. J Bloglandia has permission to use the material for the volume it’s published in.
The deadline for submissions is ongoing. I’ll publish whenever I have 65-75 pages of material.
These guidelines are subject to modification.
My criteria is simple: I’ll publish anything I like that won’t get me sued.
Download the template in MS Word or Rich Text Format or Plain Text. Don’t worry about how it looks, I’ll be formatting up a storm in the final document.
I look forward to your submission(s). Please email your edited, proofed and formatted document to editor AT jblogs DOT info or editor AT j-bloglandia.info Also feel free to contact me if you’d like more information or just to chat. I’m on Skype at ginger.mayerson.
Note on the title: Blogtopia (y!sctp!) was taken.

Hi Dr. Sue,
I would love to have your writing in the J Blogs. If you could put your articles on one of these templates
http://wapshottpress.com/JBloglandia/JBloglandia_Template_MSWord.doc
These two work for Mac users:

And send it either to me at editor AT wapshottpress DOT com or
editor AT j-blogs DOT info that would be great. I’ll publish when I have 70 or so pages. So please tell your friends to send me work so I can publish the first issue soonish.
Please let me know if you have more questions. I look forward to reading your work!
