2. The query should be no longer than one page, should have a timely hook, and should clearly present the premise and approach of the proposed article.
3. Some editors do not accept email or phone queries — be sure to check the writers’ guidelines for the specific publication you have in mind.
4. No unsolicited manuscripts. We assume no liability for unsolicited manuscripts, photographs, or artwork.
