Playgirl submission guidelines?

Anyone know where I can get them? Besides picking up a playgirl that is (rather expensive and I find the pics funny, not erotic). They don't have a website...for a rant on how unfair that is, see the general board.

If you are asking about Fantasy Forum, you send the stories to Playgirl @ 801 Second Avenue, NY, NY 10017. Submissions become their property. They need to be in manuscript form and you need to include your name, address and phone number. They don't send acknowledgement of receipt. They only contact you when they decide to publish. Hope that helps.

thanks czarina

what's the ideal word count (200ish-500ish)?

Maybe I should buy the new issue to see what they're looking for.

Between 250 and 500 words works well. Usually they give the nod to stories that are first person (of course). Chance encounters are popular - bumping into an old school mate, eyes meeting across a board room table, etc. Mine was about the Ranger I met out hiking. It wouldn't be a bad idea to grab a copy. I agree that the pics are trite and too posed, but some of the forum stories are really well written. (I sound like a guy reading Playboy - "I only read it for the articles!")

Good Luck!
