How Do I Submit a Letter to the Editor to Woburn Patch?

It’s a question we get asked a lot: “How do I submit a Letter to the Editor?”

With the water meter issue underway and a discussion on medical marijuana dispensaries coming up and a special state election in a couple months we'd like to hear what you have to say.

(Don’t get us wrong, Letters to the Editor don’t have to be political. Sometimes the small issues resonate the most.)

There are two ways to submit a Letter to the Editor to Woburn Patch:

1. As a blog post. Submitting a Letter to the Editor as a blog post is easy (really as simple as writing an email) and immediate (as soon as you hit “Approve,” it’ll be live on the site). If you plan on submitting multiple letters over time, submitting them as blog posts will also allow you to establish a voice or presence on the site. However, still feel free to submit as a blog even if you only plan on writing one.

2. By emailing it to Woburn Patch Editor Rich Hosford at Richard.Hosford@patch.com. If you chose this route, be sure to include your name and the name of the street you live on, and please specify that your email is intended as a Letter to the Editor in the subject line. We try and publish emailed Letter to the Editors within 48 hours (during the week) but there is no guarantee.

We do accept Letters to the Editor that have been published or submitted to other publications.

So, Woburn, let us know what's on your mind!
