Guidelines for freelance writers

The Rotarian is a monthly magazine dedicated to reporting on topics relevant to members of Rotary clubs worldwide. The majority of our readers are civic-minded business professionals who live in North America.

Before submitting a query for consideration, we ask that you familiarize yourself with the magazine. To request a copy (US$1 per issue), contact administrative assistant Cynthia Edbrooke. You can also find recent articles here.

If you have a story idea you think would be appropriate for The Rotarian, send us a query. If we are interested, we will contact you. Due to the number of submissions we receive, we cannot guarantee an individual response. Please do not send completed articles, and note that we are not responsible for unsolicited manuscripts, artwork, or photographs. All queries should be sent to:
