Letters to the Editor

Tips for getting your letter published:

• Keep your letter brief; the shorter, the better. Most letters are edited for clarity and length.

One-hundred or fewer words stands

the best chance of being published;

200 words should be your maximum.

and daytime phone number. *

We do not publish unsigned letters.

• We prefer to have letters submitted in typed or electronically transmitted form.

However, we will accept handwritten letters, providing the handwriting is legible.

• Choose your words carefully.

Letters that contain libelous or slanderous

statements will be edited or rejected.

• Do not send us copies of other people’s work.

• Do not write again immediately

after a letter is published.

We won’t consider your next letter

for at least 30 days.

• We won’t publish political endorsements.

• We won’t publish obvious organized attempts to flood us with mail on a given topic.
