fhi Submission Guidelines
Thank you for your interest in writing for fhi, a
monthly online magazine for conscious-minded women. We’re
always looking for new voices that present useful information
or a fresh angle about anything that will engage, entertain
and educate our readers. Our definition of “conscious-minded”
is broad, encompassing concern for the environment, community,
and health, as well as interest in social trends like style,
décor and products.
General
fhi accepts submissions that are lively, informative
and conversational in tone to help busy women stay connected
and informed.
We consider both issue- and service-oriented stories that
focus on trends and information relating to our departments:
herbody, herstyle, herpurse, herfamily,
hersoul, hertravels, herstory, herhome,
hercommunity, herlast laugh and IT Girl. Interviews,
reported pieces and critical essays are welcome, however,
we do review books in house. We publish few personal essays,
and prefer that submissions be third person narrative. Our
readers are savvy, educated women who are likely to pursue
topics beyond the initial article, therefore, we ask writers
to consult varied sources for their stories, and provide sidebar
resources for readers to learn more.
Details
1. Word count: Depending on nature of pitch, between 450
and 1,500 words.
2. Photography:
For interview-based stories and product descriptions, we ask
writers to provide .jpgs or .pdfs with rights to accompany
their articles.
3. Compensation.
fhi does not currently pay for the stories it publishes.
Writers are encouraged to link their websites and include
a bio and picture with their articles.
4. Rights.
Writers retain the rights to the stories they publish on fhi,
allowing them to republish these stories elsewhere in the
future. Writers give fhi the non-exclusive right to
use the story.
Please send submissions to daisy@forherinformation.com.
Finished work and query letters are both welcome. If sending
only a query, please include clips and/or writing samples.
Thank you.
Sincerely,
The fhi Staff
