Write for us

When preparing and submitting an article for publication, please keep the following in mind:

a. Our editorial is written in an informal but informative manner. We prefer not to use footnotes or endnotes, as this gives the appearance of a scientific journal. Also, please note that Minority Nurse is not a peer-reviewed publication.

b. Generally, we follow the Chicago Manual of Style in all matters related to punctuation and grammar.

c. Please include the location (city and state) of any companies, organizations, or schools cited in the text.

d. Please include the professional and educational credentials of any nurses cited in the text (on first usage only): e.g., Jane Hernandez, RN, BSN, MPH.

e. Our preferred length for articles is 500 to 1,000 words

f. Please submit your article via e-mail to [email protected] as an attachment. We use Microsoft Word, though we can also accept documents prepared in some other word processing programs, such as WordPerfect.

g. Whenever possible, we like to use photos, preferably four-color, to illustrate feature articles. Please ask any nurses you interview to send photos of themselves directly to the magazine via e-mail ([email protected]). We are especially partial to “action shots,” such as nurses working with patients, minority students participating in recruitment or retention activities, pictures taken at community health events, etc.

Electronic or scanned photos must be at least 3″ x 5″ in size with a resolution of at least 300 dpi. For photos taken with digital cameras, use the “fine” or “high resolution” setting. We prefer a JPG file format; however, we can accept TIF and EPS formats for photos and EPS and AI formats for vector art and logos, if applicable.

h. All authors should include a one- to two-sentence biography with articles they have written.

i. Please do not include product promotions in the title of articles and do not use more than 2 links to products (not applicable to product reviews)
