P.O.S.T. – Power of Sober Thinking

You can be a part of the P.O.S.T.

If you’re interested in writing a feature article, check the list of up-coming topics in the latest issue. We’re always looking for contributions. The preferred length is generally between 300 to 350 words.

Or if you have an opinion on anything related to local meetings or recovery in AA in general, the Everyone Has One feature is a good place to make your thoughts known. These pieces should be about 100 to 150 words. They may be encouragement for things you feel are done well, pointers to areas that might be improved, or anything in between.
