Noticeboard Submission
Important
I am bombarded with requests to publicise this or that event, thing or request. While I try to publish anything that I feel is of interest to ATM-minded people, I cannot guarantee publication. Priority is given to things that may not get publicity any other way. Products and commercial ventures will be considered (see below) but items that contradict or undermine the aims of ATM will almost certainly not get a look in.
Noticeboard items will often be added to the ATM General eNews
Commercial things
Don’t just send me a press-release with hyperbole, superlatives and puff. If I have the time and I want to include it - all the puff will be excised. You will stand a better chance if your blurb is informative and factual.
Link back to this website
You will stand an even higher chance of inclusion if you place a link on your website to this one (www.atm.org.uk).
No endorsement
Any reference to the ATM website in your own material, whether your news item is included here or not, may NOT imply any endorsement by ATM without specific, express agreement in writing. To obtain such endorsement you will have to work several months ahead of time and I have to say it would be very difficult to acquire.
Format
Submissions using this form will get attended to much more quickly.
