letters don't always lead to well-written stories, so if you've neverwritten
for us or don't have any clips that demonstrate your ability towrite the
kind of story you are proposing, you should just write your storyand submit
it. If you've been published elsewhere, it can't hurt to submitclips of
your work.

Unbiased, balanced commentary will best benefit our diverse audience and
most importantly, the writer's developing career. Our intent is to
give a voice to the worldwide community, however we are not accepting editorials
