Call for Guest

Authors!

 

 

 
We need

you! Please collaborate! 

From the beginning, I have regarded RETraining as a thriving community, a collaborative effort, not just a big sandbox for Rex to pontificate. Oh, do I ever love to pontificate . . . but it will take YOU to make REBTraing a world-class journal and a valuable contribution to REBT-CBT world and to wellness in general.  Please consider contributing as a guest author. It is easier than you think.

 

Boring! I want to submit an article! Click to skip to the sign-up form!

You don’t have to write like Snoopy! 

to be a guest author on  REBTraining/REBTinfo. All that is required is to be literate and demonstrate an ability to express yourself at university level. And naturally we want you to have passion, enthusiasm and something interesting to say about REBT-CBT and related topics.  

 

Naturally, the closer to the “epicenter” of REBT-CBT-Mindfulness, the better.

However, we are a big tent and welcome thoughtful pieces about Positive Psychology, ACT, DBT, behaviorism and other approaches. We are also happy to receive thoughtful items about addictions and substance abuse; Stoicism, ePrime, General Semantics, rational thinking, rational living, critical thinking, wellness, self-improvement, assertiveness and social skills training, stress management.  Have a look at the sections listed on our bookshop to get an idea of some of the topics and areas you can write about.

Numbered lists (e.g., Ten ways REBT can help you have mind blowing orgasms!) are fashionable these days and a great way to organize your thinking. They seem to attract lots of readers.

Bullet points are good.

Comparisons of REBT-CBT with other approaches are great. Thoughtful criticism is fine as well.

Seasonal and topical subjects such as  How Travel is Good for Your Mental Health  or Stress-free Holidays are appropriate too.

Sharing first person accounts of your experience with a particular approach is always strong and popular.

Book and media reviews are most welcome. Did you happen to attend one of Jordan Peterson’s talks?  Tell us about it.  Did you see an example somewhere of emotional upset and bad behavior that REBT might have prevented?  Tell us about it.

Evergreen is best. Topical articles are OK, but obviously are short-lived. If you to submit a topical article, try to tie it into a broader cultural and historical context so that it does not appear stale when it is re-published.

Big Tent

Benefits of being a guest author:

Greater exposure for your name, your writing, your brand, your website, your products and services.

When your article is published, an excerpt will appear at the top of our home page. It will gradually cycle down to the bottom of the list and then be archived to be republished to the top of the home page at random intervals. The link to your article will always remain “live” so that you may continue to share it with friends and colleagues as often as you like.

All of your posts will have a bio box like the one below with your name, photo, links to your website and social media plus a  brief bio. 

You will get that warm, fuzzy feeling of knowing that you are helping to expand your brand as well as the brand of REBTraining as well as REBT-CBT generally

 

 

Your bio box will look something like this and appear at the bottom of your posts. If you submit regular contributions, they will be listed under the “Latest Posts” tab.

 


Okay, okay. I want to be a guest author. So what do I do now?

Give it an attention-grabbing headline.

  When we receive your submission, it should be proofed, edited, polished and ready for publication.  

Don’t be “stuffy.”  It is fine to be casual and personal,  but please use Standard English at the university level.
