All submissions must include the writer’s names, address and phone number. Address and phone number are kept confidential. Op-ed submissions should be limited to 700 words.
In the subject line, put “N.J. commentary” followed by the topic or suggested headline.
Paste the text of the piece into the body of the email message. No attachments, please. If a piece is time sensitive, please make it clear in the subject line.

Please note: All op-ed and letter submissions become the property of NJ Advance Media and its affiliated newspapers. Submissions may be edited, published and otherwise reused in any medium.
