to hear fresh voices, but they won't keep reading long if the new voices are
inane. So meet our columnists. They're just
what readers have been looking for - at very competitive rates.

newspaper chains, if columns are ordered for multiple
editions, reflect total number of readers reached, regardless of
how many editions run the column.
Magazines can order columns or specialized pieces for each individual publication's
normal freelance rates, including considerations of all rights,
first rights and so forth.
Please note, if you request a
column, you are agreeing to pay for the column, even if you end
up not using it. We cannot be responsible for checking every
paper to see if a column that was ordered was actually used. |
