Description of Publication:
Freelance percentage varies. A Library Journal 'Best New Magazine' of 2002. Author Kurt Vonnegut raves, 'Nowhere else have I found such thoughtful and literate reportage on the state of the American soul.' Bookmarks is a colorful, smart, decidedly unstuffy guide to the best in new and classic books. Welcomes new writers. Circ. not provided. Bi-monthly. Pays on publication. Period between acceptance and publication varies. Buys first rights. No reprints. Responds quickly. Sample not available. Subscription $24.95; more for intl. subscriptions. Guidelines not available.
Current Needs: We are looking for writers to help with our smaller reviews; we are primarily looking for writers interested in this work, with opportunity for larger assignments. Writers must be able to distill information from a variety of newspaper and magazine sources, write succinctly and eloquently, pay close attention to detail, and meet deadlines. Submit a resume and short (fewer than 1,000 words) book- or literary-related writing sample in the text of your email message. We will NOT consider applications without a writing sample. No phone calls or email attachments, please.
welcomes new writers
Pay: Payment is per article, the amount is dependent on type and length.
Hints: The biggest mistake is a writer who has not seen our magazine, and does not know what our magazine does, and submits something that is totally inappropriate. Interested readers should also be knowledgeable about us and should be sure to visit our website at http://www.bookmarksmagazine.com to learn more.
