If possible, articles should be e-mailed, preferably as MS Word documents.
Manuscripts should include the author's name, address, Social Security number and daytime phone number on the first page of the story. Include the word count with the article. We use the Associated Press Stylebook and Webster's New World Dictionary. The editor reserves the right to edit for clarity, length and style. If major revisions are needed, you will be contacted.
Accompanying photographs (along with written permission) and electronic art are welcome (black and white or color).
Deadlines
Two to three months before the date of the issue.
Payment
Fees vary depending on the length and depth of the story. Writers are paid by the end of the publication month. We do not pay kill fees. We usually buy one-time print rights with exclusivity within our region and the right to post the story on our Web site. Reprints of articles from publications outside our region are also considered.
