BETTER HOMES AND GARDENS
http://www.bhg.com/bhg/file.jsp?item=/help/writersGuidelines
---
We read all freelance articles submitted, but much prefer to see a
letter of query than a finished manuscript. The query
should be directed to the department where the story line is the
strongest. A freelancer's best chances lie in the areas
of travel, health, parenting and education. We do not deal with
political subjects or with areas not connected with the
home, community, and family. We rarely use poetry, beauty, or fiction.
