A Guide to Writing the Perfect Mind Cafe Article
Written in the style we’re looking for.
Just the other day, I was hanging out by the virtual water cooler, and I overheard some chit-chat regarding Mind Cafe. “It’s getting harder and harder to publish a story there these days. It’s practically impossible to get in.” one passerby said. “They’re not accepting any of my work. I’m going to just stop trying.” another defeatedly announced.
Disheartened by these thoughts, I wanted to write a short and sweet update about our submission guidelines. While we are getting increasingly more selective as a publication as we place the utmost value on quality writing and storytelling, we do not wish by any means to discourage you from being a valued contributor to this publication. After all, you have grown Mind Cafe to where it is today! You are the reason we are getting more selective! Your writing just keeps getting better and better, and we simply cannot publish everything! Believe us, we’ve tried…
So, I wanted to share a few updates that will hopefully reveal that sure, it is getting a bit harder to get published in Mind Cafe, but it is nowhere near impossible. I hope this update inspires you to continue writing, submitting, and being a part of this amazing publication you have helped us build.
