Writers' Guidelines

Thank you for inquiring about freelance writing
opportunities with The Heart of New England,
a weekly online magazine that celebrates
the unique character and culture of the
northern New England states:
Maine, New Hampshire and Vermont.

Our goal is to provide high quality and original
stories about travel, gardening, the arts, New
England-made products, and food, written by
northern New Englanders (or those who have spent
a lot of time in these states). We truly believe
northern New England is a special place to live,
work or visit and your story needs to reflect
an appreciation and knowledge of the region
and its people/culture.

(Writers are encouraged to subscribe to the free
weekly newsletter by sending a blank email to
SUBSCRIBE.)

Payment for all stories is $15 upon publication.
Stories can be reprints or originals;
500-1000 words, maximum.
Your article will always remain online
in The Heart of New England archives for
as long as the magazine exists after
it is published in the current issue.
Author retains all rights, electronic and print.

Please note: we accept and encourage reprint story
submissions (particularly stories that first appeared
in northern New England newspapers or other
publications) provided that the rights belong to you.

We do not accept unsolicited manuscripts.
Please query the editor first by email at
editor@theheartofnewengland.com
before writing or turning in your story.

In your query, please provide your name, address,
email, phone number, along with a short paragraph
outlining your story idea, and a short bio.
We will get back to you as soon as possible –
usually within a month.

Do not send attachments to your email
– they will be deleted.

We are open to good stories for any of the pages
however, we have an ongoing need for stories for
the following pages:
