WRITER'S GUIDELINES

  1. Manuscripts should be typed, double-spaced, with wide margins.
  2. Manuscripts and queries should be accompanied by a cover letter, samples of published manuscripts, if applicable, and a self-addressed stamped envelope. To speed response time, instead of a SASE we recommend writers enclose a postage-paid postcard reading:

    ___ Yes, we are interested in publishing (title of ms).
    ___ No, we regrettably have to pass on its publication.
    ___ Maybe. We'd like to hold on to the manuscript for future consideration.

  3. To obtain a sample copy, send a check in the amount of $3.50 payable to Reform Judaism.
  4. Word length:

    Cover stories: 2500 - 3500 words
    Major feature: 1800 - 2500 words
    Secondary feature: 1200 - 2000 words
    Department (e.g., Travel) 1200 - 1500 words
    Letters: 200 words maximum
    Opinion: 630 words
