Sunset magazine (Travel Writers)

Sunset is Western America’s largest-circulation regional magazine, with monthly issues devoted to four subject areas: travel and recreation; garden and outdoor living; food and entertaining; home design, remodeling, and projects. The magazine is largely staff written; its largest freelance need is in travel, and more for shorter items and one- or two- page stories than features. The editors are looking for “take-action” travel ideas within our coverage area that will appeal to a large, general interest audience (70 percent women) that is time challenged, appreciates value, and is more likely to live in the suburbs than San Francisco, Seattle, or Los Angeles. Payment is up to $1/word upon acceptance.
