Inside the Magazine: 2018

Throughout the year we share our favorite features, editorials, and handy story ideas from Ruralite, Florida Currents, and Currents magazines. Use these best practices to spark ideas, discover new sources, or reprint content on your own pages (ask first!).

Important note: If you are interested in reprinting any of the features in the share package, you should contact the communicator at the utility that published the feature for permission. We include a list of the utilities’ phone numbers and contact people who have examples in the share package.

Want to reprint a Ruralite feature? Email Ruralite or your local editor.
