Following Up on Unsolicited Manuscripts

by Work From Home

So, you sent an unsolicited article to an editor and it has been three whole days. What is the editor doing? Why isn’t there a response? It won’t hurt to send a follow up email, right?

Actually, there are times when sending a follow up email is a great idea, but this isn’t one of them. Editors often have several hundred new unsolicited submissions to look over each month. In addition, each accepted piece means more work for the editor. Generally, sending a follow up email after only a few days is a bad idea and will make the editor wonder if you are going to be one of those “needy” writers.

Now, if the editor has had your article for six months and the magazine has a two month turn around policy, it is definitely time to drop a polite email asking if the manuscript was received. That article may be sitting in the editor’s “in case I have room” pile, but it could just as easily have been devoured by SPAM filters.
