Writers & Editors

Our Writers are enthusiastic about positive change and like to write about meaningful things worth sharing. They have excellent writing talent, are reliable and communicative.

In general we provide writers with story resources from our incessant spring of innovation and inspiration. Writers craft articles from these resources and research more if required. Since we have many content partners who get a bright smile on their face when we publish or edit their materials, creating articles is usually easy and fun.

We share an easy-going writing style. This is fun and challenge at the same time. We provide orientation and training. It can be easy or require considerable learning. ‘Shimmers from the Shoal’ explains about positive change journalism.

Many of our writers experience this as an outstanding opportunity. Many connect it with their personal life, university activities and professional path.

We also need Editors to polish articles to perfection.

If you would like to join YL as a Writer or Editor,

FIRST check out our many EDITIONS through our top menu to find what’s the one(s) for you.

SECOND, CONNECT to the EDITION’S COORDINATOR through the ABOUT / TEAM tab in the RED COLOURED TOP MENU.

THIRD, introduce yourself briefly. Be yourself. You may tell us about your inspiration, aims, writing experience and what you deem useful to share with us to get to know you.

You will then receive a TEAM PROFILE form, in which we ask a few more things. Then come info docs about Positive News media culture that require watching some mind-blowing youth leader spirit videos, and some articles… so you know what spirit we wish to promote. YES – some time is required, but how else can we join on a journey of innovation? This is new to most people. And provides amazing insights and learning. Our READER FEEDBACK proves that this is not exaggerated.

So – be welcome, stretch your wings – and join one of the most extraordinary adventures that this era holds for creative writers.
