Fat City Magazine is always looking for contributors of all kinds! Whether its writing up a nice feature story or a short and sweet record review most of the time we’re interested. But, like with everything in life, there are a few guidelines.
Feature Stories: Fat City accepts unsolicited feature story submissions to the PO box and as attachments via email. However, we cannot guarantee their publication. Also, Fat City Magazine does not run question and answer interviews except in the Conversations section and we don’t need contributors for that. If you have any questions regarding length, structure or anything else, please drop us an email. Also, do not expect to get paid. We’re as broke as you.
Columns: Currently, we do not run columns in Fat City Magazine. We anticipate running guest columns by famous people down the line but other than that, we’re not sure. If you’re famous and would like to write a column, drop us an email. If you’re an average Joe and like to write, send it any way. If it’s cool or interesting, maybe we’ll find a home for it. Also, do not expect to get paid. Unless you’re really famous. We’re as broke as you.
Reviews: Now we’re talking. You like to write? Write us some reviews. It’s simple - go down to the store, buy a CD, listen to it a few times and write down what you think. If you’re good and we like your stuff we’ll start sending you stuff to review. Afterwards you get to keep the CD and see your name in print. That’s a bargain! And if you get enough reviews published, you’ll earn Punk Points to trade in for free stuff like autographed pictures and T-shirts. Pretty slick, huh? Keep the reviews to under 200 words and remember, this isn’t Buddyhead. There’s a thick line between being honest and being a douche bag.
Photographs: Most of Fat City’s photo needs are taken care of in house but there are always times when we need some good shots. If you have some photos you’d like to submit for printing email us first to see if we can use them. We’ll let you know what the deal is. In nearly all cases we don’t have enough beer bottles to cash in to pay you off but we take it on a case-by-case basis. All photos will be returned at your request.
