By Admin
Yep. We want to see your work. From Here on, The GR Chronic will post new artistic works with backlinks to your websites, social media accounts, or preferred streaming platform (we recommend Qobuz).
What counts?
Art is dynamic and eclectic, and so are we. For an example, we will accept anything like Anna Vitale’s wildlife photography, to Kat Carvel-Ray’s creative web development, and more. Here’s a list of what we will accept, but you’re welcome to email the admin to ask what is acceptable or preferred for the website.
- Essays / Creative Writing / Local News / Lists
- Recommendations / Musical and Theatrical Performances / Things to Do / How to Guides / Local Gatherings
- Music / Video / Content Creation
- Photography / 2D Art / Digital Art / Alternative Art
- Sculpture / 3D Art / Installations / Interior Design / Architecture
- Robotics / Electrical Design / Construction / Web Development / Game Development
Submission Guidelines
The GR Chronic has pretty standard submission policy, but with some extra padding. We won’t accept imagery of children or teens, conservative talking points, AI-generated content, violence, triggering content without warning, or billionaire promotion. If you don’t like that, then this is unfortunately not the community for you.
Posts will remain anonymous unless the submitter chooses to use their real or preferred name.
What’s included in a free submission?
Free physical or digital artistic submissions to The GR Chronic will include up to 4 images of your work, a paragraph about you, and a backlink with UTM tracking pointed to your website or a social media account of your choice.
Free writing submissions will include your entire piece of writing with up to 1 image for the blog post. Writers may also give the admin a website or social media account to backlink to.
What if I’m willing to pay for more than a free post?
Please contact The GR Chronic for more information! Because we offer many services and all requests are different, we would rather talk with you before coming up with a fair cost.
