Write for us
We welcome pitches that help readers understand counties through their landscapes, settlements, routes, place names or local identity. A strong contribution is specific, carefully framed and useful without assuming specialist knowledge.
What to pitch
Propose an evergreen article with a clear question or idea, such as how a geographical feature shapes a group of places or what can and cannot be inferred from a place name. Explain why the subject suits Prime County Journal, what the piece would cover and what reliable material would support it.
A careful approach
We value plain English, sound context and a clear distinction between evidence and interpretation. Avoid unsupported origin stories, sweeping claims about a whole county and advice that depends on official, professional or local rules. Tell us about any relevant interests that could affect how readers understand the piece.
How to send a pitch
Send proposals through the Contact page and choose the editorial question option. A pitch is a proposal, not a promise of publication; please wait for a response before sending a complete draft.
Place makes more sense when you join the dots
A county is not just a boundary on a map. Its names, landscapes and settlements tell connected stories, best noticed one detail at a time.
