Description of Publication:
New, forthcoming 4/c and b/w, glossy trade publication. 75% freelance. Six issues/year. Paid circulation: 100K (projected). Pays within 30 days of publication. Publishes ms within 2-6 months after acceptance. Responds 2 weeks. Subscription rates not yet announced. Guidelines by mail with SASE and $2.90 postage.
Current Needs: Freelance writers with least 3 years magazine and newspaper experience on any sport, sport events and competitions, sports medicine and health, sports business management and finance, sports insurance and liability, and sports psychology. Our articles will relate to the coaches of cheerleaders and spirit dancers (from middle school to college age) as well as to gym owners, administrators, judges, choreographers, and other professionals in the spirit industry, but not cheerleaders. Publication rights vary depending on piece. Only original articles will be accepted. We welcome new writers with fresh and creative angles. Submit cover letter, resume, and at least 3 samples of your work by e-mail to cheerpublisher (at) aol.com.
Pay: Pays $0.35 - $0.50 per published word depending on length and research involved. Articles vary from 500 to 3,000 words.
Hints: You will be writing with both the young, up-and-coming as well as long-established spirit industry professional (coaches, advisors, administrators, operators of spirit competitions and product expos, gym owners, etc.) in mind. In other words, what can you offer the 'know-it-all' head cheerleading coach for the Dallas Cowgirls and what can you offer a Community College cheerleader thinking of opening her own small gym?
