Submission Guidelines

Welcome to Chic Mom Magazine!

To submit articles to our site, keep in mind the following:

We LOVE to support mama writers and creative types, however, you do not have to be a mother to write for Chic Mom.  If you have a penchant for writing, creative writing, poetry, art or other creative endeavors, we want to be your outlet. We like good writing, and if we can help you grow your talent, get exposure or just be in your corner, we’d LOVE to.

Our articles are organized into three categories: your chic family, your chic home, and your chic self. We welcome essays, opinion pieces, and articles on the following topics: relationships, sex and marital issues, family life, fashion, humor, spirituality, nutrition, exercise, and self-improvement.

Our readers are smart, introspective women who appreciate good writing.

Articles should help readers navigate their busy lives so they can rediscover themselves and continue to grow as mothers and women physically, spiritually and emotionally.

What we like at chic mom magazine: a little edge; grounded; honest and real; humorous; thoughtful and complex.

If you are an author who is pitching a book, we welcome your topic but typically ask that you submit an article about your topic that fits with our standards.

For product reviews, we do have a slew of moms who would love to review your product, but it depends on their time availability. We will not accept payment to do reviews as we want our reviews to be completely authentic. Also, if we do review a product, we ask for a discount on your product for Chic Mom members. We also like to do product give-aways for those folks, too, when we can. Oh- and if our reviewer really doesn’t like the product, we won’t post a review. We only post about products that get the ‘chic mom seal of approval.’ We’re not strictly a review site, so to publish negative reviews sort of defeats our purpose.

If you would like to be considered as an expert on chicmommagazine.com, the cost is $300 per year. Your expertise must  be aligned with our mission of helping women maintain what is personally chic for them in mind, body and spirit as well as being the kind of mother they truly and intentionally want to be. For more information or to be considered as one of our experts, please contact editor(at)chicmommagazine(dot)com.

We reserve the final right to edit anything that goes onto our website in the way that best fits with our goals and mission.

Please allow 4-6 weeks to hear about your submission.

Thank you for your interest in Chic Mom Magazine!
