Read all the current issues of Dragon and Dungeon, all the articles. They'll give you a very good idea of what they want in articles. If you download the PDFs and cut and paste the text into a word doc, you can get a quick and dirty word count estimate for each article, which will help you estimate your word count length in your pitches.Get as informed as possible on current and upcoming products. Listen to their podcasts.Looking at all the current and recent articles will also show you what gaps exist. Also, read or buy the new products. They're chock full of ideas and such that could be turned into Dungeon or Dragon articles to fill in the blanks. (I'll give you a for example--an article covering how the PH3 races might fit into the FR or Eberron settings).I'd also suggest looking into the Living Forgotten Realms and their writer's guidelines. It might be a way to write for WOTC and get your foot in the door. I'm looking into that as well as pitching to D and D.Good luck! Hope more folks post ideas and pitch stuff and get published.</blockquote>
