How should I format my submission?

Resources for contributors

Updated 5 October 2023


If you are submitting a written piece, such as a traditional blog post or a piece of poetry, please attach these as a Word document on the submission form.

For a traditional written blog post, there is no official word count but usually 500-750 is enough so it is easy to stay on track.

If you would like to submit another form of contribution as listed on What can I submit to Beyond the Books?, please get in touch with us at history.blogs@sheffield.ac.uk and we will give you further advice.
