Description of Publication:
Low percentage of freelance contributions. We are the most popular billiard magazine in the world, and we work very hard to promote the sport of pool. Welcomes new writers. Circ. not provided. 10 issues/year. Pays after publication. Period between acceptance and publication varies, depending on the article. Buys first rights. No reprints. Usually responds in one day to emails. Back issues can be downloaded from their website. Subscription $19.99; $56.99 outside the U.S. Guidelines by email.
Current Needs: I am always looking for new talent. Writers must first and foremost have a love of pool. Strong photography skills are appreciated. Writing must not be stuffy but should reflect the creativity of the game itself. Submit query by email.
welcomes new writers
Pay: Pays $0.10/word for 1,200-2,400 words.
Hints: Not doing enough research on the subject is probably the most common mistake I've encountered. As with any other topic, pool is exceptionally detailed and has its own quirks, and thorough knowledge of the game and its players are important.
Photos/Art: 3,000 dpi, digital is best. Pays $25 per picture printed.
