Submissions Checklist
Here’s a quick and easy checklist that can save time by ensuring that you’ve given us everything we need, and that your submission is suitable for use.
Please use this checklist when submitting anything to Freemason – be it an article, news from your Lodge (On The Level), Letter to the Editor or an advertisement.
Generally speaking, submissions comprise text and pictures/graphics. The checklist opposite details what is required of each.
When you’ve ticked the relevant boxes, email your articles through to freemason@masons.org.au or your advertisements through to freemason@apmgraphics.com.au
If you’re not too confident with the written word, just give us the main points and we’ll put it together for you.
Please check our Media Kit to make sure you meet the relevant deadlines, otherwise it may get bumped to the next issue – and that isn’t always in the best interests of the submission.
Media Kit
Our Media Kit includes everything you need to help you advertise in the Freemason Readership and circulation data, advert sizes, dimensions, costs, submission requirements, magazine deadlines and a booking form, plus much more. Just scan the QR Code
Remember, submission does not guarantee publication. Some items may be held over due to space limitations, returned for more information or even declined due to lack of suitability, but we will always try to include any submissions we receive.
