All articles are subject to editing for style and content.
We prefer short paragraphs, and minimal jargon. AP Style Guidelines are a useful jumping-off point but, more importantly, make the style appropriate. Articles should be typed, double spaced and submitted on plain white paper. If photos are enclosed, or are to come, that should also be clearly indicated. For timely stories, American Skating World does have FAX capability.
