The Escapist in the New Year

Well folks, it's that time of year again: Time to make the donuts. And by donuts, I mean The Escapist Editorial Calendar covering April through June of 2007.

Those of you familiar with The Escapist may already know that our weekly magazine covers one focused topic each week, and that each article in that issue will have something (hopefully) to do with that topic. Since we solicit a large percentage of our weekly feature content from you, the people, we've tried to make the process of submitting articles to our magazine as simple as possible. All you have to do is send us an email describing what you propose to write. What could be easier?

Our editorial calendar exists to show you what topics we'll be covering in which issues, and by what date we'll need to see an email from you if you want your article idea considered for publication. It's so easy, even a caveman could do it. But we do insist on quality, so you'll also find a handy guide to our standards and styles at the submissions page, which should tell you everything you need to know about writing for The Escapist.

A lot of game writers have gotten their start here with us, but we also regularly publish material from some of the most interesting and talented veterans in the field as well as a number of celebrated developers and artists slumming with us down here in the editorial trenches. We feel that this makes The Escapist a magazine with a wide appeal across the entire spectrum of the game-playing audience, and we hope you agree.

The calendar, style guidelines and submission instructions can be found at our submissions page.
