AWARENESS MAGAZINE
EDITORIAL
GUIDELINES
Awareness Magazine is Southern California’s Guide to Conscious
Living, a free bi-monthly publication covering such issues as Alternative
Health Treatments, Natural Health Products, Fitness and Personal Growth,
Spirituality, the Environment and much more! We also include Book, Music, DVD
and Film Reviews, along with a special Kid’s review page.
We believe that through teaching each other to live in balance
with nature, we take responsibility for our own health and well-being. What we
have needed in our society is for someone to listen and to take action.
Awareness Magazine is addressing these important issues and we encourage you to
get involved.
HOW TO SUBMIT AN ARTICLE:
We accept submissions for consideration by email only. Articles fitting the theme of the issue are
selected first, then others as space permits.
We can not guarantee an article will be published. Articles must be
interesting, informative, well written — not promoting a product or service, or
a self-promo piece.
Each article submitted should have a headline, a byline, the
article, and a brief bio at the end. Feature articles can be approx. 750-800
words including bio (max. 75 words), others
should be kept to 500-600 words including bio
(max. 50 words). If you aren’t sure
which category your article fits into, please call or email us.
Run through spell check, proof carefully as spell check does not
catch everything, check total word count, and then email article in a word
document, single-spaced without paragraph indents plus extra spacing between
paragraphs. Do not include headers or
footers. You may also include a 300 dpi color photo or other image for possible
use with the article. Email:
yolanda@awarenessmag.com
We are blessed with an overabundance of submissions each issue,
aside from the articles our staff writes, so please submit early. Often even before the deadline, our space for
editorial material is already filled. A
good rule of thumb is to submit your final article at least two weeks before
the editorial deadline. Do not submit an
unfinished piece. See editorial calendar
and deadlines below.
REVIEWS:
First email information regarding book,
CD, DVD, or product
and we will let you know if it is something that fits our magazine and where to
ship your product. If we select your book for review, we need to have it in our
hands no later than 30 days prior to the editorial deadline to give us time to
read and review your book.
PHOTOS AND GRAPHICS:
Photos or graphics need to be 300 dpi. We can resize or convert color to black and
white if needed.
PAYMENT:
We do not compensate writers, however you do receive exposure from
the 40,000+ magazines that are distributed and mailed throughout So.
California, also some in Arizona, New Mexico and Hawaii. And your article is placed on
awarenessmag.com which is currently
getting about 60,000+ hits every month.
Another bonus is our e-magazine which is emailed directly to the inbox
of all subscribers.
