Current Needs: We are specifically dealing with the province of Saskatchewan. Subject matter can range from profiles of people to canoe-- voyage travelogues. We have even profiled a native berry (the saskatoon berry) in the past. As long as it belongs to Saskatchewn and speaks to her unique personality, it's fair game. Submit query.
welcomes new writers
Pay: Pays $0.25/word (CDN) for articles around 2000 words.
Hints: Full stories are online on our website. These stories are excellent examples of what we are looking for. The most common mistake is to not read back issues of the magazine. The other is to assume that a topic equals a story. It is too late when you sit down to write about your visit to the grasslands to decide what the story is. As painful as it is, treat your query letter with as much seriousness as your final draft.
Photos/Art: 35 mm or medium format slides. Pays $300 (CDN) for cover, $100 for full page, $45 for 1/4 page.
