Article Publication Guidelines
Please read carefully - your article will not be considered until after it has been written, submitted to us, and edited by our staff. Articles will be scheduled to print on a first come basis - the sooner your article is submitted, the sooner it will appear in Women's Connection Magazine, and be seen by thousands of Bay Area women! Be sure to include your name, company name, address and phone number with all article submissions.
The following is a listing of the types of articles that we are interested in, with a short description:

Use this space to inspire others to take the road to independence, economic self-sufficiency and job fulfillment.
