Please keep everything low-budget - no using your personal jet as a bug out vehicle or other such nonsense. Keep it practical.

All writings must be original works (not published anywhere else) of 1,000 words or more – copyright becomes the property of The Survivalist Blog dot Net upon publication.

The author of best article submitted over the next 60 days will receive:
