Interview with Ausma Khan and Kid Magazine Writers

Just read an interview with Ausma Khan, the editor-in-chief of Muslim Girl Magazine.

I have, by the way, received confirmation that Muslim Girl is a paying market.

Also, if you are interested in writing for children/teens in general, the website the above interview is a great resource with detailed market reports and interviews with editors:
