Because of space constraints, articles that range from one to two typed pages, double-spaced, generally have a better chance of being published than lengthy features. However, all submissions will receive full consideration. For instance, the deadline for receipt of all materials for the June issue is April. If you miss a deadline, all is not lost. If the story can be saved and run at a later date, we'll do it.
All articles have a much better chance of being published if they're accompanied by good photos.
When it comes to photo format, we prefer color slides. Also, for those of you with the capability, we are using more and more electronic images. However, they must be high-resolution images to produce acceptable results on press. The optimum resolution is 300 pixels per inch. However, the image has to be large for this method to work.
