Covers:  We are an entirely New England-focused magazine. That's a firm rule. I am interested in food features with great narrative and five or six delicious, reliable, well-tested recipes.
Doesn't Cover: I do not assign general features or travel stories. Those queries should go to Mel Allen (mela@yankeepub.com)
