Content Guidelines

All submission types may be formatted as half page (200-300 words), full page (500-600 words), or two page spread (1000-1200 words) depending on your goals and content. For both an interview and article, we include a headshot, one-sentence bio (written in third person), website, and one social media handle at the end of the article so that people can connect with you. QR codes and logos are only allowed in graphical display ads.

• Self-written interview – You create both the questions and answers, and submit accompanying photos (two-page example & half-page example). This format allows you to guide the conversation intentionally and highlight your voice, story, and expertise. While this option naturally lends itself to self-promotion, we encourage contributors to frame their responses in a way that educates, inspires, or offers meaningful value to the reader. Best for thought leaders, speakers, and practitioners who want a personal, conversational way to introduce their work. QR codes and logos are only allowed in graphical display ads.
• Article – You submit a written article designed to serve the reader first, and we provide a stock image to accompany the piece. This may include solving a specific problem, answering a meaningful question, or offering insight that helps readers grow, heal, or transform. This article can NOT be purely self-promotional. It MUST provide value to the reader. Articles are curated for clarity, relevance, and resonance with the Awakened Magazine audience (full-page example). Best for contributors who want to establish credibility through teaching, storytelling, or perspective. QR codes and logos are only allowed in graphical display ads.
• Graphical Display Advertisement – You provide a high-resolution, print-ready JPG showcasing your product, service, or offering with 1/8″ safe zone with no text and 1/8″ bleed. While the ad should clearly reflect your brand, all advertisements must align with the overall aesthetic and quality standards of Awakened Magazine (full-page example). Ads are reviewed to ensure they feel elevated, intentional, and visually cohesive within the publication. Best for brands, events, retreats, and offerings that benefit from strong visual presence.

Article / Interview Subsmission Process

• Provide a Link to the Google Doc: Please provide the interview in a Google Doc (not in a Word document or pdf) by inserting a link in the form below. If you are unsure of how to share a Google Doc, here is a short video.
• Proofread and Edit: Ensure your interview is well-written, free of errors, and flows smoothly. We do not accept articles that are purely written by ChatGPT or another AI platform. We ask that you run your article through Grammarly before submitting to ensure that it represents you in the best way.
• Length: Half page (200-300 words), full page (500-600 words), or two page spread (1000-1200 words). Headshot and one-sentence bio (written in third person) with your website and one social media link will be included with the article or interview.
• Images: If you are publishing an article, we will provide stock image(s), and if you are publishing a self-written interview, you will provide images of yourself.
• Preview: You will be given the opportunity to preview your article / interview for final approval prior to print. 

Graphical Advertisement Submission Process

• Please provide a high-resolution, print-ready file (jpg) with 1/8″ safe zone with no text and 1/8″ bleed. (Example: The final size of a full page ad would be 8.75″ × 11.25″.)
• File must be submitted to awakenedjulia@gmail.com.

Deadline and Details
