Submitting Original Content

The cardinal rule of submitting an article is: know your audience. Familiarize yourself with the work of the journalist you're approaching, and know the readership of the publication. Always read the magazine/trade publication you're trying to get coverage in. Know what kinds of articles they publish, and know what was written in their last issue. Don't pitch a story idea that's similar to one they printed in the previous issue.
