Readers submissions are continued at collection #22.   


 

 

  • Submissions are welcome from all readers on virtually any subject or issue related to Thailand.  Submissions are also welcome about issues and experiences from neighbouring countries.

  • The one type of submission that is NOT welcome is sex reports.  Reports detailing activities between the sheets will not be published here.

  • All submissions should be stand alone pieces.  They may refer to previous submissions but should be stand alone insomuch that anyone could read and enjoy it without having read another submission that it may refer to.

  • If you submit a piece that you feel is time sensitive, perhaps because it refers to a just-published submission or perhaps because it refers to something that is current, let me know and I am happy to bump it to the start of the queue so it can be published the next day.

  • Submissions can be sent to me either in the body of an email or as a Microsoft Word file attachment.

  • Submissions MUST be at least 800 words in length.  Please tidy up the English as best you can before sending it to me!  There really is nothing worse than receiving a submission, tidying up the English and then getting another version of it, which has to be tidied up again.

  • I may make amendments to submissions, including tidying up the English, the text formatting and very, very occasionally removing something that may be sensitive, defamatory or too risqué.

  • Certain submissions may be denoted as * Star submissions if I think they are a touch better than the rest.  There is no specific criteria here and it simply means a submission that was a bit more touching, moving, informative, incisive, or persuasive than most, in my opinion.

  • Please provide a title for the submission, a pen name and advise whether you would like an email address added.  If you do not provide a pen name I will list it as "anonymous".  Of course you can elect to have it listed anonymously.  If you do not specifically advise me that it is ok to include your email address, I will not.  If you want an email address included, it is a good idea to create a new one so your primary email address doesn't become the recipient of spam.

  • If naming people in your submission, it is generally best to change the names to protect the innocent (or not so innocent).

  • There may be a delay between the time you send the submission to me and the day that it is put up online, usually a week or so.

  • If you are one of the thousands of people who reads the submissions here everyday, why not take the time to write up YOUR STORY!  We've all had humorous and interesting experiences in Thailand so why not share yours?
