Thank you so much for your interest! Your experiences as a climber, whether you have been climbing for 1 month or 20 years, are ones we can learn from and, as common climbers, ones to which we can relate!
 
This site represents inclusivity and high quality. If you provide a submission, it will most likely be posted as is, but I may also ask questions and provide constructive feedback or minor edits prior to publication. I will do my best to be thoughtful, constructive, kind, and supportive. Think of it as a positive exchange between two people who like to climb, write, and share!

The goal of Common Climber is to have a diversity of voices and resources presented in a refined and well-edited package (this makes it nice for the reader). I recognize that just as we are not professional climbers, nor professional photographers, we are also not professional writers, so I will try to keep this "real." Nonetheless, we want to strive for quality and diversity.

Some submissions may get sent back with suggested revisions and, for various reasons, some submissions may not get posted.

Reasons for not posting a submission may include:
  • The work was sent back for revisions and the revisions were never completed or received;
  • The submission does not fit or align with the vibe or goal of this site. I will not post overly negative, derogatory, demeaning, or arrogant - such as I am better than "newbies" and get out of my crag - submissions;
  • The submission is repetitive or too similar to other submissions that are already posted (but this does not mean I won't post similar topics, so submit it anyway!);
  • Submissions may be removed over time (such as gear reviews for products that are no longer made or as the site evolves).

Thank you!

COPYRIGHTS: The copyrights of original writings and photos belong to the author and can be used and submitted elsewhere and/or removed from Common Climber at the author's request.

REMUNERATION/PAYMENT: There are no fees for submitting your work to this site. There is also no remuneration or payment for submissions. This is a community-driven website and all submissions must be freely shared. By making a submission, you acknowledge this statement. Submissions can always be removed at the original author's request and published elsewhere. 

​Top submissions will be considered for our Anthology book. 


INSTRUCTIONS FOR SUBMISSIONS

PHOTOS:
  • Photos must be no larger than 900 KB.
  • Submit the country, state, climbing area, wall name, route name, route rating, type of climb (sport, trad, mixed) with the photo.
  • Submit a 1 to 2 sentence tip or tidbit about the climb or climbing area. Make the text interesting, fun, or useful to others - such as beta you wish had been included in a guidebook. If you list a name of someone in a photo, make sure they are OK with it first. Otherwise provide just the first name or leave names of climbers off.
  • Please provide the name of the person who should receive photo credit. Please submit only original work. Do not plagiarize!

WRITING:
  • Submit original thoughtful articles that have heart, humility, or humor related to your climbing experiences. Overly negative, derogatory, demeaning, or arrogant - such as "newbies suck" or "get out of my crag" - submissions will not be considered.
  • Please provide the name of the person who should receive authorship credit. Please submit only original work. Do not plagiarize!
  • Submit articles in .txt or Word format (NOT PDF).
    • Make it single spaced.
    • Use left justified paragraphs (not indented) with space between the paragraphs. (Look at the writings on line for an example).
    • Use +, -, or numbers in front of text and with text on a new line to indicate bullets or numbered bullets.
  • Make sure your writing is well edited, with no misspellings or grammatical errors. Make sure that it has a good, clear flow and focus.
  • Please be prepared to receive questions or feedback on submissions prior to their posting. Additional editing may be needed prior to publication on this site.
  • Author page: People who submit writings can have an author page with a bio, photo (if you wish), and will have a running list of published writing submissions. An author page is not required, but if you wish to have one, please include the following:
    • A brief biography
    • A photo
    • Let me know if you wish to have a contact email on the page

THANKS!
