Writers - Call for Entries

Call for submissions

to Landmarks magazine

The latest issue of our print magazine, Landmarks, featured the launch of a new column that we’re organizing in conjunction with Writers & Books. The column is called “Writers & Landmarks: Personal and Pithy” and we’re looking for submissions from YOU.

The guidelines are simple:

- Contributions should be approximately 500 words.
- Essays should relate a personal memory or reflection on an example of the built environment in Rochester and the Western New York communities served by The Landmark Society.
- The essay should stress what the site has meant to the individual and his/her community. - Essays can be written in the first person and tell a personal memory of a place. Or, the writer may choose to tell the story of a place and what this place has meant to a community (and community can be a neighborhood, group, town, city, etc).
