Step 1: Check out our guide to Writing for Pinnacle. Learn it. Know it. Live it.

Step 2: Send a query to Editor-in-Chief Matthew Cutter briefly describing your idea, which Savage Setting it’s for, any illustrations or maps it might need, and any of your published credits, if applicable.

And that’s it! If we like what you submit we’ll work out all the details and give you a deadline.

We look forward to hearing your ideas and seeing you all among the Explorers’ ranks.
