Bee Culture is the magazine of American Beekeeping. We cover beekeeping – its history, how-to, equipment used, and even the humorous side of this craft. But there’s so much more to the world we touch – pollination, honey plants, gardening with bees, wildlife and woodland plantings, and all the creatures that bees affect and interact with. There’s a serious side too – pesticides, politics, imports, marketing, pests and predators. All are examined, investigated, explored and explained.
Submissions:
Electronic submission of text and photos is strongly urged. Articles should be attached, not in the body of the message, and be MS Office compatible (a word.rtf is perfect). Photos should be attached, or possibly sent in a separate email. They MUST NOT be in the body of the copy. Photos should be a tiff or jpeg. at 300 dpi, in the 5 x 7 inch range. Larger should probably be sent on a CD. The entire article and photos sent in on CD is perfectly acceptable. Hard copy articles are standard – typed, double space with contact info on every page, photos as
prints or slides must be labeled as the article copy pages. Return postage if you want them back. Though we don’t like to, if manuscripts, electronic or hard copy, don’t meet these minimal requirements they’ll be returned unread and unanswered.
Payment
Unsolicited regular or feature articles, between 1500-2000 words pays roughly $150.00-$200.00, including photos (more on negotiation). Payment is usually made on publication. We do not make reprints. We always provide an issue of the magazine the article appears in. Articles that are solicited by the Editor usually pay more depending on difficulty and editing required. Articles requiring heavy editing or rewrite will be paid less. Cover photos are paid $50.00, for one time use.
