[nativestudies-l] Opportunity to publish

[Ruth Garby Torres]

Below is a message I received from an acquaintance of mine, Phil Konstantin.  Phil is an enrolled Cherokee and the author of the book On This Day in North American Indian History.  I know some of you are quite capable of writing about some of these topics.  Might look good on your resume.  Please pass along to others that might be interested.

Here is an opportunity for some of you to write an article 
for publication. I have done a couple of articles for 
these people before. Their checks have always cleared 
the bank  ~~|:-)

I have attached the e-mail from , the list of articles 
needed and what you will get if they accept your article. 
I recommend contacting them first, to make sure they need 
any specific topic which interests you.

Please contact them directly if you have any questions.

Hello Colleagues,

ABC-CLIO is in the final stages of collecting entries for 
its forthcoming four volume Encyclopedia of American Indian 
History, edited by Bruce Johansen and Barry Pritzker, to be 
published in mid-2007. There are, however, a small number 
of important entries that are not yet written and time is 
of the essence.
 
I have attached a copy of the list of entries to be written 
along with the number of words we would like to see for each. 
We will be willing to compensate anyone willing to help 
according to the schedule attached. Should you be interested 
in contributing to this important work, please e-mail me at 
indianhistory at abc-clio.com.

Thank you,
