Our main deviation from AP style concerns second references to the strain of hepatitis being discussed. One method of contracting HCV is by sharing intravenous drug needles. On second reference, hepatitis A, B, C, etc. would be referred to as HAV, HBV, HCV, etc. If there is confusion as to which strain of hepatitis is being discussed, the writer should always spell out the name such as hepatitis B. Manuscripts should be typed and double-spaced with numbered pages. Hepatitis pays 25 cents per word as accepted unless otherwise approved by the editor.
Payment is upon acceptance and completion of the story.
Hepatitis pays 30 days after the date of invoice. Ideally, photos should be sent to Hepatitis . If the author chooses to submit photos via e-mail, the photos MUST be scanned at 300 dpi and saved as a .jpg file. Please note the nature of your correspondence in the subject line of your e-mail. Thank you for your interest in writing for Hepatitis .
