Anyone had any luck freelance writing for history magazines?

Wait 5 sec.

Hello all, I'm new to the industry and would love to get some articles published in history magazines. I have a bachelor's degree in history and communications, but am wondering if my pitches are being rejected as I don't have enough academic qualifications? I was wondering if anyone's had any experience freelance writing for history magazines without a PhD? Another question - what's the etiquette for pitching multiple magazines? Do I need to wait a few weeks with no response before I send the same pitch elsewhere? Or just go ahead and pitch multiple places at the same time? Also, given I have limited experience and sample work, do you think I would be better off just writing the articles I'm pitching, and sending them directly? (as opposed to pitching the idea for the article?) Thank you!   submitted by   /u/cool_bananas15 [link]   [comments]
