Quiet Hours

Frequently Asked Questions

This page gathers the questions we are asked most often about sleep habits, routines and the articles we publish. It is meant as a companion to our reporting, not as a substitute for it.

  1. 1

    Who actually writes the articles on this site?

    A small team of staff writers and contributing researchers, each named at the top of their article along with a short line on their background. We do not publish unsigned or ghost-written pieces.

  2. 2

    How is this publication funded, since nothing is sold here?

    The journal runs on a small amount of display advertising and voluntary reader support through our newsletter. No sponsor or advertiser has input into which topics we cover or what an article concludes.

  3. 3

    Can I suggest a topic for a future article?

    Yes. Use the topic suggestion field on our contact page and let us know what you would like covered. We read every submission and use them to plan upcoming pieces.

  4. 4

    What happens if you find a mistake in an article?

    We correct it and note the change at the bottom of the piece with a date. Our stated aim is to review any reader-flagged error within 30 days and keep that correction visible, not hidden.

Still have questions?

We aim to answer written questions within three business days by email.
