Meandering Entertainer

Submissions

We’re accepting articles about conventions, parades, concerts, reviews of amazing (as well as amazingly bad) books/movies/music, extreme sports, traveling and just about anything else. Although there will be a focus on New York City and surrounding areas, there is no real geographical cut off. We do ask that what you are writing about is actually true and abides by the not so basic rules of grammar of the English Language.

And so, the standards:

  • Inventive adjectives and interesting turns of phrase. Don’t rely on the entertainment provided by the event or media itself, be sure to convey mirth through your language.
  • Do attempt to answer as many of the 5 W and 1 H questions of journalism (who, what, where, when, why and how) as you possibly can.
  • Proofread your work. If too many mistakes are found in the first few paragraphs, your article will be rejected outright.
  • If you are writing about an event, then you are welcome to use as many as 1,000-2,500 words.
  • If a review of a book or album is submitted, then the limit is between 300-600.
  • Pictures are welcome always, but please exclude peen and vage.

All we can offer you for your work is feedback, exposure and, eventually, press passes to events (concerts, film screenings) as well as review copies of books and CDs. Send your submission to Meandering.Entertainer AT gmail.com (we fear spam bots).

Please allow a few days for processing. All writers will be notified of the status of their article.
