TO CONTRIBUTE ARTICLES . . .

Servicing Management accepts Editorial contributions from its readers to supplement features written by staff writers, professional mortgage industry journalists and mortgage industry experts. These features are designed to:

• give readers "nuts and bolts" information about how they can improve their operations, and
• examine industry trends.

If you'd like to contribute an article, contact the Editor to discuss your idea. Call (800) 325-6745, ext. 241. Articles are generally 1,500 to 2,000 words in length and address a topic specifically, without promoting the author's company. The author does receive a byline and company attribution in an accompanying Editor's Note. If provided, a photo of the author is published.

An article reprint service is also available to authors and companies, in which articles are reprinted in an 8-1/2" by 11" format on coated stock. Reprint service details are available upon request.
