More freelance opportunities with Maxim's new editor

April 16, 2000 - After Mike Soutar left Maxim with only one year on the job, Keith Blanchard, the new editor is looking to "beef up the coverage."

"I think you can expect a more appetizing blend of short columns and features along with a greater wealth of the kind of pieces that we're best known for," he said.

Laurina Gibbs, Editorial Assistant, answered Wooden Horse's request for writer's guidelines [link to glossary] that the magazine has "never codified our guidelines for writers." However, "we do encourage [writers] to submit ideas for future stories." Their only requirement is that ideas be tailored to provide readers with a balance of service information and humor.

Mike Soutar abruptly resigned to manage a division of a rival publisher, the British IPC.
