Often, it's the Features Editor or Associate Editors on larger magazines but may be the Editor or Deputy Editor on smaller, niche mags. It just takes a quick phone call or email to ask for the correct details. If you send it off to a busy editor or someone who doesn't commission you may lose some cred for not doing your research.Linda Barnierhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12353429172423773430noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1495198733430494988.post-37915156255819418542012-02-17T12:01:05.667+11:002012-02-17T12:01:05.667+11:00Damn. *cancels appointment for designer vagina*

It was totally based on the idea, and the entire pitch was a short paragraph. Title, section of the mag, why it was a new trend and how I'd structure it (v briefly).
