Non-fiction
artlook publishes articles and reviews on the arts and artists in Australia, giving particular emphasis to events and people living in Canberra and the region. We are always looking for new writers—and not only those with a specialised knowledge.

For your guide there are a number of things you need to know:
• Send one or two pieces at a time—by email or on disk
• (please include a hardcopy with your disk)
• Enclose a SSAE for the return of your manuscript
• The work must be previously unpublished
• Copyright rests with the author
• Articles vary but are generally between 700-1200 words
• The Editor reserves the right to edit the work
• Payment on publication

Keep artlook's publication dates and deadlines in mind. We publish on the first of the month and the deadline for copy is the 17th of the month prior to publication. Content of each issue is decided in the first week of the month prior to publication.

Consider pitching your idea first. We commission 100 per cent of the work that appears in each issue so if you don't pitch your idea first you may be wasting your time. You are welcome to phone, fax or email the artlook office with any queries.

Photographs and other images are welcome but should be accompanied by the creator’s approval for the works to be reproduced in artlook .
