Thank
you for your interest in writing
for Animal Wellness. As the
Number One natural pet magazine
in North America, we take pride
in providing our readers with
the information they need to
make wise health care choices
for their animal companions.
Our publication embraces the
entire holistic spectrum, from
physical health issues to the
emotional and spiritual well
being of our animals.
We
welcome unsolicited articles
and story outlines. Articles
may range in length from 500
to 1,500 words. If you submit
an outline for a story, please
also send samples of your work.
We especially encourage submissions
for our Animal Passages and
Tail End columns, but welcome
other articles as well, as long
as they focus on holistic healing,
whether physical, emotional
or spiritual.
Before submitting to Animal
Wellness, we ask that you familiarize
yourself with our publication
so that you have a strong sense
of the type of articles we publish.
Consider topics you know well
and/or that will offer special
interest and appeal to our readers.
Please ensure that any health
facts or statistics that might
appear in your article are accurate
and come from an accredited
source.
Please
do not send multiple submissions
(articles that have been sent
to more than one publication)
unless you have received confirmation
that the story will not be used
by another magazine. Although
we prefer to use original material
only, we do sometimes publish
book excerpts. Do not, however,
send book-length manuscripts.
You
may submit articles either by
our online
contact form, or on disc
to Animal Wellness Magazine,
107 Hunter St., E. Unit 201.
Peterborough, ON, Canada K9H 1G7. Be sure to include
your name, address, phone number,
FAX number and/or e-mail address
on your manuscript. A brief
biographical sketch of yourself
is also recommended. If you
are sending your submission
by regular mail, please also
enclose a SASE and keep a copy
of the article for your own
files.
Photographs,
where applicable, are also encouraged.
They may be submitted either
digitally (at 300dpi) or as
prints or slides along with
your manuscript. Make sure the
photos are labeled and include
your name, address and phone
number. Every attempt is made
to return photographic material,
but it is advised that you keep
copies of your images.
Our
turnaround response time for
submissions is four weeks. We
pay for one-time rights only.
Unused material will be returned
after due consideration.
