How do I get my work posted on stationhill.com?
It is very easy! 1. Your work must be sent by Email to Roger@stationhill.com.
Please send only one work per Email. Your work must be in the
body of the email as my virus scan deletes many of the incoming attachments. 2. Your work
must not be upsetting to our readers. 3. Your work must have at least
minimum levels of quality for your age level. 4. You must include your age if under 18.
5. Your work must be
original. 6. You must
agree that you are solely responsible for your work. 7. You must agree
that your work will remain on our site for an undetermined length of time (but
will be removed at your request). Submitting your work shows agreement with
points 5, 6 & 7. 8. Your work must be in English. 9.
Your work must be less than 10,000 words. Stationhill.com will not have any rights to your work
other than posting it on our web-site.
Will you edit my work? NO. Will you type in or scan
in my work if I send it by postal mail? NO. Can I submit works that
I wrote a long time ago? YES.
Will you post my mailing address and/or phone number? NO, we don't do this due to privacy
and safety issues. However, we will post your Email address, if you wish,
so that publishers or reviewers can contact you. We will make a "brief
preview" of your work. Please make an extra effort to avoid
misspellings. Remember that even if your work passes spell check, there may
still be misspelled words. You may have used an incorrect word for your
work that passes spell check because it is a word but not the correct word.
Stationhill.com believes in traditional English as opposed to internet English. If the work is poor or contains offensive
material, we will not post it. We make no effort to verify the facts or
conclusions in any work. We ask readers to notify us of any offensive
material that may have been missed in our "brief preview".
What is the chance that a publisher will contact me?
Probably quite low, but it depends on the quality of your work and the
publisher's needs. Does this web-site receive any commission if a work is purchased by
a publisher? NO.

What types of work does stationhill.com accept? We accept
practically any type of work. The work can be a poem, fiction or
non-fiction.
It can be a biography, an essay, a how-to, a term paper, a scientific paper, a journal
or a book review/report. Stationhill.com will not accept works which are disguised
advertisements. We will not accept political or religious works that
promote specific viewpoints.
I have self
published a book or I have a manuscript, how can I use stationhill.com? We cannot post whole books
to our site. However, you may post a single chapter or post a few excerpts
(subject to the 10,000 word maximum) in our Book Excerpts section. You would include your Email address
and 100 or so words to give the readers more information, ex.( This is historical
fiction set in upstate New York in the late 1800's. The story deals with
family feuds and a doomed romance. This soft cover book is 305 pages and is priced at
$15.95US ppd.) Very small publishers
may also use this service. This service is free!
I think that I want to post my work but I'm not
sure. Having your work posted on stationhill.com may change your
life. You will feel that you are a writer. Being published will give
you a feeling of accomplishment and a dedication toward your new works.
Amateur writers have sent me many emails telling me how ecstatic they were when
they first got published. We urge you to send in your work. We will do
what we can to help you. If you are afraid that you might embarrass
yourself by posting your work, we will accept an author name of 'Anonymous' or
your use of a pen name.
I have requested "Reviews and Comments" but
have not received any. Many authors have made this comment to me.
Stationhill.com cannot force readers to comment on your work. This is what
I suggest; you (the writer who wishes to receive
comments), should seriously and carefully read over a work which is similar to
yours, and email your comments to the author. At the end of your email,
give the name and location of your piece and ask them to comment on
your posting. Please take this seriously, do
not tell the author that their work is great if in your opinion it is poor.
On the other hand, do not be overly critical. Please give writers who are
under 18 years of age easier treatment. Please go beyond just saying
that the work is good, average or poor. Try to make helpful comments such
as: do more character development, use shorter sentences, paragraph 4 doesn't
work for me because I can't understand it, etc. Also, be sure to mention
what the author has done well. Please make no more than 3
comments per piece so that the author does not lose heart with their writing.
You will find that making "Comments and Reviews" will improve your writing more
than receiving "Comments and Reviews" will.
