They will be included in a professionally produced Winners' Book, distributed at the ceremonies. Selected winners will also be part of a multi-page feature by BUILDER magazine, co-sponsor of Gold Nuggets and official publication of the National Association of Home Builders.

An excellent guide to help in your explorations is the book, Where and How to Sett Your Pictures (see bibliography, page 299) with its listing of newspapers and syndicates. If you'll study these listings, you'll note that a great many more newspapers and syndicates are in the market for feature pictures than for spot news. This is because feature pictures, as pointed out previously, are not only less perishable than spot news, but have more widespread reader attraction. The interest in a good feature set can be almost universal and it can have sales all over the world. Your syndicate or agent will take care of foreign sales for you when you reach the point where they become profitable.

Smart editors are keenly aware of the public's avid appreciation of feature pictures ( a Gallup survey long ago proved the picture page to be by far the most popular part of the paper) and would like to give their readers a lot more of them. But despite threats, bribes and cajolery, they usually can't get their staff men to produce enough features. That, naturally, leaves a wide open opportunity for the freelance. Any freelance with a good set of feature pictures can expect to receive warm welcome in virtually any newspaper office in the land, at any time.
