Who We Are
The Slo Coast Journal is all about small town and rural life in one of the finest, most beautiful areas of the country. An amazing collection of eclectic, fascinating, and talented individuals from all walks of life have chosen to make this part of the coast their home. Those who don't already live here, wonder how they can make the move.
Our writers are an enthusiastic group of people who are on these pages to share their love of this special place. In case you are wondering, each is asked to pick a favorite animal for their banner. Some are a bit perplexing, but, oh well. Not only are the writers enthusiastic, they are sometimes a bit - ahh - let's say "unique." We welcome your input, suggestions, and, of course, praise. You can write to your favorite columnists from this page: Contact Us
The opinions expressed, whether by a columnist, paid advertisement, or editorial content, do not necessarily reflect the views of this publication's management or staff. We edit, but don't stifle.

Ideas for Columns
Do you have an idea for an ongoing column that you would like to write? We'd love to hear it. The criteria for being considered is simple - your column would have to pertain to the area of the coast we cover (Los Osos to Cambria). So, what's on your mind? Right now we'd love to have some participation by students who want to write about their schools. Interested? Contact: Judy Sullivan
In Response
It is our policy that responses and rebuttals to articles will be printed in the next issue. Submit your comments to Judy Sullivan. Be sure and include the issue (month) of the Journal and the title of the article you are responding to in your email.
Submit Fiction or Poetry
We happily support local poets and fiction writers. If you would like to have a place to share your work, contact Judy Sullivan.
Submit Photographs
Do you have a photograph or three you would like to share with our site visitors? The photographs used must be of this area orbe submitted by photographers from the Los Osos to Cambria area. Send them along to Judy Sullivan. If they are used, you will be credited, of course, and, if you like, we will link to your site. You can also post your best images to the Flickr group Slo Coast Journal Photographs for consideration to be chosen for our Great Shots page.
The majority of photographs used on this site can be clicked on to see the original, larger version. There are several that don't include links, generally because the photographer just doesn't have a display page. One of those images is on this page - the Pelican and Morro Rock image. It was one of the last photos taken by Stan Thompson.
The images used on banners throughout the site are shared with us by a variety of photographers. Some do so anonymously or come from free photo sites. Where possible we like to acknowledge the talent and generosity of the photographer.
Advertising
Advertising opportunities are available throughout the Slo Coast Journal pages. We welcome businesses, individuals, websites, and organizations. Ads can be placed on the page of your choice, though space is limited. Jump right in and support your favorite columnist. Payment is made directly to the writer and is based on a flat rate per month. Some writers choose not to accept advertising and their decisions will be respected. Contact us at Advertising for more information. We reserve the right to refuse advertising that, in our opinion, does not reflect the standards of the Journal.
Receive a reminder to visit the Journal when the next issue or update is available. Send email to Update with "Update" in the subject line.
