OUR
WRITER'S GUIDELINES
Fine
Art Registry accepts submissions from experienced and
accomplished writers, as well as new writers wanting
to break in. We are a brand new concept, having recently
been granted two U.S. Government patents on our technology
and system, and we are the first permanent registry
of its kind for artists and collectors. We welcome practical
articles of interest to serious visual artists, emerging
or professional, as well as collectors. Examples of
what we publish: marketing how-to's, first-person stories
on how an artist has built his career or an aspect of
it, interviews with artists (business/career-building
emphasis), and articles on business practices and other
topics of use to artists and collectors.
Before writing for us, please familiarize yourself with
the type of stories and general interest articles Fine
Art Registry publishes. If you feel your submission
would suit our editorial interests, please consider
the following:
-
Preference is given to fresh, edgy, maybe even irreverent
new ideas and investigations on the visual arts and
collectibles, as well as related topics. Tell us a
story we haven't heard from the visual art and collectible
markets, especially as it might relate to Fine Art
Registry. Don't be afraid to think outside the box.
- Since
we are a national and international online service,
we publish articles that appeal to readers from the
U.S. and abroad and everywhere in between. Stories
dependent upon local references and/or characters
are not suitable for Fine Art Registry, although exceptions
are made from time to time.
-
We have a small editorial staff, so attention to detail
should be paid to your manuscript submissions. Please
query first. Unsolicited submissions are accepted,
but will not be returned.
-
We will publish stories that have been published in
other publications so long as the author currently
holds the rights to the story.
-
Please send all submissions via email attachment in
Microsoft word format to admin@fineartregistry.com
with the word "Submission"
in the subject line. Include your name, contact information
and a brief bio.
- Most
important of all, know
Fine Art Registry's mission and what we stand for.
A shot at writing for us on a regular basis hinges
on how well you know Fine Art Registry and what we
offer our members. Know your audience.
