Ref my last above - also would say that it will be worthwhile resarching which publication sources are going to have most interest in the type material you are writing. For example if you are writing about Australian country/farm life then look to magazines that concentrate on agriculture.

At the end of the day, the better you target your approaches to reach those who have the most likelihood of taking an interest in your subject matter, the better chance you will have that they will first look at your work and secondly will want to take matters further.

Better still if you are abe to write on a subject where you know there is a demand. In this case you look first for publishers that want material on a particular theme or topic and then write and deliver the material they want to hear about.
