Guest Posting Policies

They Changed Me Blog is accepting guest posts for publication; however, please note that all guest post content must meet the editorial vision of the They Changed Me Blog and suit the interests of our diverse audience.  Please also note, with the exception of “guest posts” written by others (see the bottom of this page), I own the content on this Web site. It is copyrighted in my name. I want to strike the appropriate balance between getting my content widely distributed while at the same time protecting my property rights. Thanks in advance for your cooperation.

Without My Permission

You are free to do the following without my permission:

  • Link to my site or any specific post on my site.
  • Extract and re-post less than 200 words on any other site, provided you link back to my original post.
  • Print off my posts and photocopy up to 50 copies for internal distribution within your own company or organization.
  • Print my posts in any non-commercial publication (e.g., company newsletter, church newsletter, class syllabus, etc.), provided you include this copyright notice: “© at www.theychangedme.com”

Not Without My Permission

  1. Use this content for commercial purposes, including selling or licensing printed or digital versions of our content.
  2. Alter, transform, or build upon this work.
  3. Re-posting and Translation Rights
  4. We do not permit the re-posting of our posts in their entirety. This is because Google penalizes websites for publishing duplicate content. It often can’t tell which site hosts the original, so we risk getting penalized for granting permission.
  5. In addition, we don’t allow the translation and publication of our work in other languages. We simply don’t have the resources to validate the quality of the work.
