Guidelines for Writing a Great Blog Post

To help you get started, here are some guidelines to follow:

• Select any topic that may interest pharmacy technicians.
• Aim for 300 to 1000 words. Keep paragraphs short.
• Write in the first person (I/we). Your unique perspective is what will make your post great.
• If your post is evidence-informed, or mentions specific works, include in-text hyperlinks for online references and/or a reference list at the end of the post.
• Proofread your post for grammar, spelling and punctuation errors prior to submitting it.
• Optional: Along with the blog content, provide web-ready images that relate to the topic (and comply with copyright laws).
