We’re raising the bar, including only the most thought-provoking and engaging articles.
You knew something was up when you received your February issue of Public Utilities Fortnightly. It had more pages and more features. And a new attractive look and feel.
By now you’ve received your March issue. Still more pages and more features. And an even more attractive look and feel.
But have you noticed that the quality of the articles and columns has risen more dramatically?
We’re now including only the most thought-provoking and engaging pieces that are sent our way. We’ve raised the bar, considerably.
Considering a contribution to PUF? Want to know what we’re looking for and what we’re turning down these days?
It helps if you’re a recognized and respected thought leader that our core readership of senior utility managers and regulators wants to follow. But if you’re not, there’s room in PUF.
As long as your proposed piece is thought-provoking, and sharply and succinctly written. And if you would leave the reader with information or a perspective that is fresh and boldly confronts today’s problems and issues.
The length of articles should be in the range of one thousand to three thousand words. Given today’s busy world, for our senior core readership particularly, the shorter the better.
Footnotes or endnotes should be limited to those that are explanatory. Leave the cites and references for your journal articles. PUF is a practical magazine, not a journal.
The length of columns should be in the range of seven hundred to fifteen hundred words. Again, given today’s busy world, the shorter the better.
Letters to the editor are welcome. Their length should be in the range of two hundred words to a thousand. Again, the shorter the better.
PUF publishes only original articles and columns not published or presented elsewhere. We do not publish news, nor freelance or ghost-written pieces.
Authors should reach out to me, directly. Send me an e-mail. I’m at smitnick@fortnightly.com.
As the magazine for commentary, opinion and debate on utility regulation and policy since 1929, Public Utilities Fortnightly fosters vigorous arguments on the hottest issues of our day, by the most respected thought leaders with the sharpest prose.
