Do you have a personal story to share? Email us at nnyinfo.com@gmail.com.
Our readers love stories like these:
- Sports & recreation — including the story behind a fishing or hunting trophy
- Hobbies & crafts built up over years
- A major personal accomplishment
- A unique trip
- Restoring something old — a boat, a car, a camp
- Wildlife conservation
If you think your story might not be interesting enough to share — think again. People love reading about other people’s stories and inspirations, and we love helping put those stories together. Even the most ordinary-seeming story interests someone, and yours may inspire someone else to share theirs too.
How the process works
- You contact us and tell us a little bit about your story.
- We read every submission and decide whether it’s a fit for NNY Info — a North Country connection, something readers here will care about, and enough there to tell a full story.
- We reply to everyone — whether we can use your story or not — with a brief explanation.
- If it’s a fit, we work together by email. We may send you a short questionnaire; answer all of it, some of it, or none of it — your choice.
- You can send photos, video, and anything else relevant to your story by email.
- We write the complete draft — with your photos and any background facts we’ve gathered — and email it to you.
- You review it. Want changes, additions, or something taken out? Just tell us by email.
- Nothing publishes until you say so. Only when you give the final word — OK to publish — does your story go live on nnyinfo.com.
You’re in control
- You are in complete control of what goes into your story before it publishes.
- You may use your real name, or publish anonymously. We would still need to know who you are — anonymous to readers, not to us.
- If your story names other people, please let them know and ask their permission too.
- Depending on the story, we may look up and add relevant background facts — you’ll see anything we add in the draft you approve.
- Changed your mind later? If a published story ever needs an edit, an update, or even removal, contact us and we’ll do our best to accommodate you.
No cost, ever. Not every pitch can become a story, but every one gets read — and answered.
