SkyAboveUs Editorial Policy
If you love the outdoors and would like to write for SkyAboveUs, check out our general
HubPages editorial policy and follow these recommendations.
What our editors love to see:
- Nature: Our editors love to see your original pictures in articles. Give someone an armchair ride to a place they haven't been, even if it's just your fishing hole. Your tackle box, the train tracks along the river, the overgrown county park, or the pond in the winter will only help the performance of your article! Pictures of plants, animals, and rocks increase the world's knowledge: show our editors bait, worms, bows and arrows, animal tracks, mushrooms, flowers, insects, or interesting places in nature. (
Example
)
- Informed advice about how to act in the wild: It can be helpful, even entertaining, to read how a knowledgeable person has dealt with danger. If you actually know, from experience, of a danger that awaits and how to avoid it, by all means, share your experience! (
Example)
- DIYs and how-tos: If you have made something to use in the wild, please show readers how. If possible, take and share pictures of every important step. If the step-by-step is too complicated to be conveyed easily in photos, consider including a YouTube-embedded video instead. (
Example)
Things to avoid:
- Vague warnings: Writing about dangers that you've just heard or read about can be overdone. You wouldn't want your readers to stay inside obsessing about danger.
- Tons of gear: Amazon capsules and links should not be the focus of an article! An article should only include a few products you can recommend from personal experience. Readers shouldn't stay at home obsessing about gear; they should get outside where they belong.
