Who may submit magazine articles?
Anyone may submit articles for consideration. We are always interested in seeing material from new writers. Although we do not generally “assign” or commission articles, we do review those sent to us and, if suitable, they are eventually used in Scale Auto magazine. We don’t expect our writers to be Pulitzer Prize-winning journalists; we are looking for model builders, collectors, and enthusiasts who feel their models and/or modeling techniques and experiences would be of interest and benefit to our readership. When we evaluate articles, we look at the quality of accompanying photos and illustrations, content of the how-to-material, and the writing style. If the photos and content are good, the article can be worked on by our staff, if necessary, to improve its readability.
