They provide a checklist of things we like our authors to provide. It’s worth going through the checklist to make sure you have not forgotten anything.
We rely on help from our friends
We greatly appreciate the generosity of people who, without being paid, submit items for Australian Model Engineering. We consider all suitable items for publication, whether long or short. Our authors contribute to the advancement of our hobby and the enjoyment we derive from it. Without our unpaid authors, the unpaid volunteers who put AME together would be lost!
Before you start to research and write
Although we run on a tight budget, in all other respects we are a professional magazine. Because of this, we sometimes decline to publish a contribution if it does not meet our standards or if it will not hold sufficient interest for our readers. (On the other hand, if an item just needs some more work on it, we have plenty of resources to help you).
To keep faith with our readers, we have to ensure that the model is completed and works well before we publish a long series of construction articles. If you contemplate writing a long article or series, it’s important to contact us before you start, so we can confirm the prospects of being able to publish it and to see if we can help you in any way.
