I heard back from Western New York Family magazine today and my article about my daughter and her special needs will be in the April 2008 Special Needs Child pull out. The pull out is like another magazing inside of the WNY Family. Amber will be the feature child! If I can get a great shot of her before it goes to print, she might even get on the cover!
I will also be writing a submission for the Halloween edition for this year. I really hope she likes it as much as this one.
I've been thinking about what tips I can put in this post for writers who are trying to break into print. I have two.
1. Don't ignore your local magazines or papers. Some have a large circulation and pay well. Plus, a clip is a clip.
2. Never quit. That is my mantra. Learn all you can, then never give up on sending out queries. You are better than you think and someone will notice that.
