Let’s continue with our Editorial Guidelines
Where to Send Material For
Publication in The Graybeards
The rule of thumb is simple: anything that
you want published in The Graybeards
should be sent directly to the editor, via
email, “snail mail,” UPS FedEx, DHL, carrier
pigeon…especially if it is time sensitive.
That includes text and photos. Eventually,
everything comes to me anyway.
People have sent material to the president,
the secretary, the administrative assistant, the
publisher, the local animal control
officer…in short, to a variety of places other
than to the editor. Most of the time, this is
done with good intentions. Occasionally,
people try to circumvent the editor by sending
their material elsewhere. But, just as for
Sid and Julius Caesar all roads led to Rome,
for The Graybeards, all roads lead to Rocky
Hill.
There are drawbacks to sending material
to the wrong place. (The wrong place is anywhere
but 152 Sky View Drive, Rocky Hill
CT 06067 or sharp_arthur_g@sbcglobal.net)
• The recipient might not forward it to The
Graybeards Editor, 152 Sky View Drive,
Rocky Hill, CT 06067, or sharp_arthur_g
@sbcglobal.net
• The recipient might forward it to The
Graybeards Editor, 152 Sky View Drive,
Rocky Hill, CT 06067, or sharp_arthur_g
@sbcglobal.net, but at his or her leisure,
which might render it too late for inclusion in
the magazine

EDITORIAL GUIDELINES
• The recipient might forward it to someone
other than The Graybeards Editor, 152
Sky View Drive, Rocky Hill, CT 06067, or
sharp_arthur_g@sbcglobal.net, who will
then, in turn, have to forward it to The
Graybeards Editor, 152 Sky View Drive,
Rocky Hill, CT 06067
So, let’s recap. If material is not sent
directly to The Graybeards Editor, 152 Sky
View Drive, Rocky Hill, CT 06067, or
sharp_arthur_g@sbcglobal.net, it might get
here either late—or never.
EDITOR’S NOTE: Make sure that when
you send material via email you use underscores
between sharp_arthur and arthur_g.
Otherwise—and this has happened more
than once—the material goes off into cyberspace
somewhere.

information, such as reunion notices or chapter
news, has taken a circuitous route to The
Graybeards Editor, 152 Sky View Drive,
Rocky Hill, CT 06067, or sharp_arthur_g
@sbcglobal.net. When that happens, it does
not get published. (And, when that happens,
the people who submitted it to the wrong
place in the first place generally manage to
find the The Graybeards Editor, 152 Sky
View Drive, Rocky Hill, CT 06067, or
sharp_arthur_g @sbcglobal.net)
Let’s review one more time: if you have
material that you want published in The
Graybeards, send it directly to The
Graybeards Editor, 152 Sky View Drive,
Rocky Hill, CT 06067, or sharp_arthur_g
@sbcglobal.net. That will enhance the
chances of seeing it in print—especially if it
is time-sensitive material.
