Community journalism

Write a story

This is your paper. If you have a story about your street, your school or your neighbours, write it up and send it in. An editor reads every one.

What happens after you send it

  1. An editor reads it. Every one, usually within a day or two.
  2. If we run it, we may tidy the spelling and cut it for length. We will not change what you said.
  3. It publishes under your name, marked as a reader story.
  4. If we do not run it, we will tell you why.

Sign in first

A story goes out with your name on it, so it needs an account. It takes about thirty seconds and we ask for an email and a password, nothing else.

Just want to tell us something without an account? Use the tip line.
