Education Series - Over the Transom

What’s the best way for free-lance writers to approach editors? A call? An email? A story pitch? Or submit a completed article and see if it flies? Join editors Ellie Miller Starks (Rochester Women) and Jim Tarbox (The History Channel Magazine) for a discussion about how they deal with unsolicited manuscripts, networking, and a variety of other concerns affecting freelance writers. Offered free via the Minnesota Magazine & Publishing Association.
