welcomes new writers
Pay: Pays approximately £10/page. No limits but the longer the story/article, the higher the quality must be. Average length is 3000 words.
Hints: Writers often make the mistake of thinking they must supply Scottish content. Those who attempt to write to what they think is our agenda get it seriously wrong. We're interested in what they want to say - not what we want to say! Chapman is published in Scotland and Scotland is its primary concern, but our intellectual range is international, as is the spectrum of writers we publish.
Photos/Art: Pays £10.
