We accept articles, poems, original artwork, and cartoons only from residents of Orange County. The content must have something to do with alcoholism and sobriety. The best articles are under 600 words and are often much shorter. If an AA wishes to submit but is unsure where to start, we recommend thinking of a great share from a topic meeting. Topics might include how to choose a sponsor, what a Higher Power looks like, gratitude, or the AA can tell their story. Lifeline Committee members are also available to interview AAs to help write their stories. The Lifeline does not accept advertisements in any form.
