Ladies, “The Kitchen Table” is accepting writing auditions for a couple of guest spots each month. If you would like to be a guest at our table please see the guidelines below:
Audition blogs are to be no longer than 900 words and no less than 650 words. This does not include your title and salutation. Any submission over the limit is automatically disqualified. We will be using Microsoft Word Count.
We suggest that if you have not been reading our blogs on a regular bases that you read at least a month of blogs to see the flavor of how we write at “The Kitchen Table”.
Our Mission Statement: The Kitchen Table is a daily blog comprised of Christian Women focusing on the common threads that we as women all share and experience. As Daughters of the Most High our mission is to encourage and inspire our Sisters to forge on and faint not in the every day struggles of life.
“The Kitchen Table” is a ministry and those who write for it, do so as a gift to God.
Things to keep in mind when writing:
Our blog is going to countries such as Norway, Australia, UK, Canada, Viet Nam, Philippines, Spain, Trinidad, Belgian, Dubai, Portugal, Mexico, Venezuela, Twain, and Copenhagen, just to name a few, and so we must keep in mind (if you are an American) that we are not just writing to Americans and the American culture. We are writing to our sisters in the Lord, about the common struggles that women have no matter what your race or culture.
Please no preaching and Christian denominational views of thinking. Our common thread is Jesus Christ, His death and Resurrection which bought us life everlasting. Do not use a lot of Bible verses or references. Reason being, people will not read them.
The best way to inspire others with the Love of God is to talk about yourself and the things He has done with the problems in your life. Because there is no problem that any of us have experienced that is not “common unto man”.
Your words should encourage, give hope, be humorous, informative, or food for thought on change. If your blog does not hit at least one of these criteria, please rethink what you have written and why.
Please do not use poems unless they are your own, and if submission is more poem than blog it will automatically be disqualified. “The Kitchen Table” blog site is not a forum for anyone to promote their website, blog, ministry or business.
