Most of the magazine's editorial content is freelance-written. This is especially true of the Perspectives and Features sections. Less experienced writers may be asked to write on speculation. For Perspectives, it is appropriate to submit manuscripts. We buy first serial and electronic rights.
All copy is subjected to rigorous editing.
Generally we follow AP style. Manuscripts should be typed and double-spaced. Completed stories should be sent on 3.5-inch floppy disks in Word Perfect or ascii, with hard copy included. Photos and illustrations are assigned to professionals chosen by our art director. The editors are always looking for fresh story ideas.
