Hints: Know our publication and market before pitching; too often we receive pitches from writers who haven't even seen the magazine or visited the website. Common mistakes made by writers include having the nerve to admit they've never even seen the magazine or visited the website and pitching things that, if they had any clue what we did or were about, they'd know better. Lesson: Do you homework!
Photos/Art: Needs vary. Consult with editor before sending. Pay varies.
