Magazines...anyone have writing experience for one?

Writing for magazines can be enjoyable and lucrative. There's nothing like getting an acceptance letter. You are on a high for the rest of the day! It's a great feeling to see your name in print and your article in a glossy publication or online. I've written for a number of different publications and the pay rate keeps going up with concurrent publishing credits. http:writeandearnaliving.blogspot.com

I have never written for major magazines such as People or Time, but have written for quite a few smaller ones. Family Circle, Sunday Digest, My Counselor, Jack and Jill, etc. A lot of them are church publications. I like writing online better because you usually get results right away. If you write for a magazine, you have to send the article along with a stamped, self-addressed envelope to the publisher and then wait whatever length of time they want you to wait. Some never respond. I have had published take 6 months to a year just to let you know if they want your article or not. It is true that magazines pay more than online places do, but I can get 20 articles published and paid for online in the time that it takes to get one in print in a magazine. Also, the magazine may be discarded in a few weeks while my work that is published online sometimes stays for years. If you aren't already writing for Associated Content online, you should try it.
