please let me know and I can send you our simple submission details. We will publish anything from one-page news releases up to multi page in-depth articles.
Regional Editors
I am
also always looking for Regional Editors and Topic Specialty Editors (zoos,
botanical gardens, museums, historic homes, etc.). We currently have 17 Regional Editors. Your job as a Regional Editor is to try to
provide one article (or find or encourage other interpreters to do an article) for each issue of
InterpNEWS (6x year). There is no $ but
lots of glory.
-
As a Regional Editor you also get free advertising if you’re a consultant or work for a interpretive firm or organization.
-
Can list being a Regional Editor on your resume or web site.
-
Can use the InterpNEWS logo on your IN communications and on your web site.
We
would love to have regional editors that specialize in:
-
What’s going on in interpretation in other countries, Canada, Mexico/S.America and in the EU.
-
Interpretation in zoos and botanical gardens.
-
Training and managing volunteer programs.
-
Interpretation for handicapped visitors.
-
Interpretive research and theory.
-
Interpretation in historic farms and agricultural sites.
-
Children’s interpretation.
-
Any other area of specialization.
If
you’re interested in being a Regional Editor let me know. You can see our current regional editors in
the current issue of InterpNEWS posted at: www.issuu.com/interpnews.
Hope to hear from you and publish your work and ideas.
Cheers,
John Veverka
