Thanks you to everyone—members, Rokstaff, writers, lurkers—for helping Rokslide put out the most gear reviews from the most diverse group of staff and members. I wanted to release our updated Writer's Guidelines. Keep these guidelines in mind if you decide to submit a query. Thank you!

Budding writer? Expert in your field? Let's see what you've got! We even pay for some articles

General guidelines I'm looking for:

1.) Great content: How-to, How not-to, Gear Reviews, Hunting Stories, Backcountry Hunting, Backpacking, Camping, or related.

2.) Well written, proof-read, and decent grammar. Target 500 to 1500 words depending on topic.

3.) Several good quality support photos with captions. Good video will be considered too, but you must do the edit and upload.

4.) DON'T SEND YOUR ENTIRE ARTICLE. I accept 1/2 to 1 page article queries only. If you don't know what a query is, it's time to learn. It will save you valuable time, too. Google "how to write an article query."

What's in it for you?

We pay between $50 and $500 for some well-written, great-topic articles. We can arrange trade for gear for some reviews. Unfortunately, we can't use everything, so don't get discouraged if we don't accept your initial query or if you're not offered reimbursement for your article.

You can email your queries to me at: [email protected]

Thanks!

Rokslide! Hey guys and gals - We're interested in your articles! Budding writer? Let's see what you've got!

General guidelines I'm looking for:

1.) Generally well written, proof-read, and decent grammar. Target 1500 words or less.
2.) Good, or better yet, great content (can be a story, how-to, how not-to, gear reviews, pretty much anything back-country hunting, backpacking, camping or related).
3.) Several good quality support photos with captions.

What's in it for you?

First and foremost, fame and glory! But we can also trade Rokslide gear and we do pay some of our regular contributors based on the quality of the submissions. You may also be asked to review gear in the future which you may be able to keep if that's your specialty.

I'm happy to help put the finishing touches on your work and do some editing as needed. Unfortunately, we can't use everything we get but I'll do my best to get you published. Can't wait to see your articles!

You can email articles and photos or your ideas to me at: [email protected]

Thanks!

Hi Rizzy,
I'm old school so I still like Word docs (still more reliable to open than the sites that require us to link to) and JPEGs at or under 500K.

Thanks
