Story Ideas

We keep a large file of story ideas—some of our own and some from readers like you. Tell us what story you would enjoy reading in an upcoming issue of Columbus and the Valley. Simply e-mail us or submit the form below. Don’t forget to include your phone number so we can reach you for additional information.

People
Do you know someone who has contributed to life in the Valley in a special way? Tell us about them. Or maybe you are that special someone we need to know about!

Events
If you want folks in the Valley to know about an event, or there’s an event you would like to read more about, send us the information. We may publish it in the Calendar or Valley Scenes or we might to write a feature story.

Places
The Valley is brimming with points of interest, enjoyed by locals and visitors alike. Now and then we stumble on some place new, or a well-kept secret. Tell us about your favorite spot or new find.

Weddings
Each year in the January/February issue, we run stories about weddings—trends, helpful hints, traditions, new options. Send us your questions and we’ll hunt down the answers. Or tell us about a wonderful resource you’ve discovered or lessons you’ve learned. Click here to submit your wedding.

Home and Garden
Readers love to see how people in the Valley live. Got a great house you’d like to show off? Know of a beautiful garden we should see? Are you building or renovating in a novel way? Do tell! Or maybe you have decorating, building, organizing, gardening, landscaping tips to share or questions to ask. 

Note to writers: We do not accept poetry or fiction submissions, but do accept article submissions from freelance writers. Please also include full contact information and/or a resume.
