Have you got a lot to get off your chest? Is yours an opinion people will listen to? Do you appreciate the lighter side of life? Can you make people smile?

This week the Gazette and Faversham News is launching its search for more columnists to join its team.

From those who are serious or funny, people who have fully-formed opinions to those who can take a wry look at life, we want anyone and everyone to get involved.

Are you a new mum? Are you a student? Are you a professional? Have you just retired? Or do you simply just care?

For your chance to regularly appear in print:

• Send us a sample column.
• Email it to kentishgazette@thekmgroup.co.uk with COLUMNIST in the subject line.
• Include your name, address and a daytime telephone number.
• Tell us a little about yourself.

If you know someone who has something to say or who you would find entertaining, please let us know.

The deadline for submissions is October 31.

If we like what we read, we'll be in touch...
