My suggestion about looking up Diggers and Dreamers was to demonstrate how people who are dissatisfied with the conventional way of modern living - pairing up to form nuclear families and being dependent on the State and jobs market, are seeking various ways of weaning themselves off such dependencies. I don't mean to suggest anything about living in England per se, or even communal housing as such. Rather it's to spark some ideas about how to connect to other people beyond just exchanging ideas at a distance/online.

About writing for a publication_ each publication has its own ways of being approached.

Put the name of the publication into the search box on the top right hand corner, and then you can find the page which you need to go on, to ask to be added as a writer for the publication.

Alternatively, explore writers from various publications and then click on the publication name which appears telling you where the article was published.

Hope that helps : )
