Write a Guest Post

Prepping is a personal thing, and this blog is about my personal journey into learning how to better prepare myself and my loved ones for any disaster no matter how small or how catastrophic. If you follow my blog, you know that I try to have “Meaty Mondays” where I do some sort of food/water post, and “TNGUN Thursday Tips’ where I do a DIY or skill based post. On Wednesdays I try to have a downloadable resource file (no nifty name for that sorry)…

While, I have plenty to talk about, and have many posts already scheduled, I realize that many people have ideas that may well be better than mine. I know that I learn more from others than from the good idea fairy bopping me on the head, so I want to invite anyone with something to say to post a guest article on “Friend Fridays”…

I want to hear what you have to say, but I do have some guidelines:

  • I love ideas, my ADHD brain is swimming in ideas, but talk is cheap, please post things you have DONE rather than THOUGHT about. I would rather have post about a failed experiment than a submission from the good idea fairy… If it failed at least we can learn from the mistake and either fix it, or stay away from it thus saving resources.
  • Submission of your guest post does not guarantee publication. Your submission will be reviewed and if it will benefit prepping community, it is likely to be published.
  • Use of bullets, lists and short paragraphs is highly encouraged as it makes reading much easier.
  • Please make a concerted effort to use correct spelling, grammar and punctuation. I am not a grammar Nazi (I have been criticized for my colloquial writing style myself), but please no text speak. I want the post 2b readable 2ne1…
  • Make sure any links in your post are relevant and valid.
  • I love resources, and links to your blog or site are great if they are relevant… Make sure they are relevant.
  • If you’re doing a gear or book review that’s great, but if you’re paid disclose that. Do not submit an ad disguised as a review.

If you would like to submit your guest post for possible posting, please email it to dnash@tngun.com with “Guest Post Submission” in the subject line.

Please include the following:

1. Your full name.
2. Your URL (if applicable).
3. Your post title.
4. The body of your post.
5. Attach any images you’d like to include (not required).
6. A short bio. (You don’t have to be an expert, but I want to know you know what your talking about)

    Your cheese making was the best I have ever seen and you were professionally charming . Have you ever thought of using a small crock pot for heating up your wax to coat your cheese? I use one for glazinf my chocolate truffles so the choc always stays liquid without burning.It works great! I wish you had some time to do a demonstration at my B&B in person.How much would your visit cost to Michigan ? Thank you so much.C Sammon

      That is a very kind comment. I do try very hard to come across as helpful but without being a “know it all” My wife says on occasion I actually pull it off… The Crock pot idea is brilliant, and I will have to look for a used one in thrift stores. I haven’t used one yet because the wax residue is hard to remove and I don’t want to gunk up my wife’s crock pot…
