Happy Monday! Here are some more markets for you to explore.

Entrepreneurs.com - From the Website:

Before pitching a story to us, be sure to read a variety of the articles on our site so you can tailor your pitches to meet our content needs. We reject many of the queries we receive because the subject matter in no way matches what we’re looking for.

We don’t typically write profiles of specific business owners unless their story warrants it. There needs to be a compelling reason to write about an entrepreneur–it can’t just be, say, that he or she is achieving record-breaking sales. We want to know–and our readers want to know–why they’re achieving record-breaking sales.

We’re seeking stories that we can’t cover in the print magazine due to the time factor–if there’s something to write about now, we can’t write about it in a print issue that will hit newsstands in several months. That’s the beauty of the web–we have the ability to cover things at a moment’s notice. For instance, we can write about how a particular current event or trend is affecting small business now.

Please send all queries for online articles only via e-mail to pitches@entrepreneur.com. (All magazine queries should be e-mailed to our magazine’s executive editor, Karen Axelton. All technology queries should be sent to our magazine’s tech editor, Mike Hogan). Allow a minimum of six weeks for a response–no phone calls, please.

Information Week:

Do you accept outside contributions?
Freelancers interested in writing for InformationWeek should E-mail their contact information to Chris Murphy, InformationWeek’s managing editor of features. We don’t publish unsolicited articles, though we sometimes run thought-provoking opinion columns by outside contributors.

Poets & Writers

We recommend that you read Poets & Writers Magazine before sending us a query or an article for consideration. You may also visit our online Archive, which contains a selection of articles from past issues. Our editorial content is divided into the following four sections.

• News & Trends: brief articles (500-1,200 words) that keep our readers abreast of pertinent information in the writing and publishing industries.

• The Literary Life: essays (1,500-2,500 words) on the more contemplative aspects of writing, ranging from creative process to the art of reading.

• The Practical Writer: advice and how-to articles (1,500-2,500 words) that offer nuts and bolts information about the business of creative writing.

• Features: profiles of and interviews with (2,000-3,000 words) contemporary writers who reflect the rich diversity of current American literature. Recent featured authors include Anne Carson, Sandra Cisneros, Jonathan Franzen, Li-Young Lee, Chuck Palahniuk, Colson Whitehead, and C.D. Wright. Other features include articles and essays (2,000-3,000 words), frequently grouped into special sections, that provide an in-depth look at subjects of interest to creative writers, such as writers conferences and residencies, small presses, regional writing, and the distinctions of genre.

Submission Information
All correspondence should be addressed to The Editors, Poets & Writers Magazine, 90 Broad Street, Suite 2100, New York, NY 10004 and should include an SASE with appropriate postage, or sent via e-mail to editor@pw.org.

For those articles we publish, we buy First North American Serial Rights and non-exclusive reprint rights shared 50/50 thereafter. We pay when the piece is scheduled for production.

Please see online guidelines for more details.

Good Housekeeping

Good Housekeeping addresses 25 million women. Most are married with children (anywhere from newborn to college age, but predominantly in the 6-12 age group) and work outside the home.

Submissions will be reviewed for the Blessings column on the back page. Submissions should be 500 words, about a person or event that proved to be a blessing in your life. We will also review health narratives — stories of women (or a family member) who’ve overcome a significant medical problem, undergone a medical "first" or had a dramatic rescue.

It’s best to familiarize yourself with the tone and content of Good Housekeeping before you query us. (Back issues will likely be available at your local library.) The most successful queries or manuscripts are those that are timely, appropriately researched, engagingly written, freshly angled and tailored to Good Housekeeping readers in particular.
