cystic fibrosis article
I would like to write an article about cystic fibrosis. A friend of mine has cystic fibrosis and had to get a double lung transplant late last year.
Since then, he has had to go through 11 different surgeries!!! He is now doing great and has been hiking and biking for the first time in his life
(he is currently 33 years old). I think that his story would make an amazing article. Does anyone have any recommendations as to what specific
magazine I should pitch this to? I would really appreciate any help. Thank you!

Take a look over in the Paying Writing Jobs area of this forum. Search through the topics. Some mags are health related. Guidelines can be found in
the post with a link to more info on whether they want straight submissions or queries.

Rissa,
Did you and me accept your piece? They paid me, but I still haven't seen it on the site *pout*

(hangs head) I never sent it. IN my defense I started it, start crying and shoved it away.
I do plan on working on it though and sending it in.
