How to Write Special Feature
Articles A handbook for Reporters, Correspondents and Free-Lance Writers who Desire to Contribute to Popular Magazines and Magazine Sections of Newspaper by Willard Grosvenor Bleyer PhD is an ebook I downloaded on the website gutenberg.org. In this book whoever is interested in writing can find good suggestions, tips, advice for being published by a newsmagazine or magazine. Good luck, first of all. In particular this book is dedicated to that reporters not too prepared but that anyway can give a contribution writing for various and different realities. A freelance who wants to send a piece at a magazine should start to studying that magazine or newsmagazine. What kind of magazine/newsmagazine is that one? Is a financial magazine? A local one? Is it a gardening, cooking magazine? Pieces are requested pretty long or short? What kind of style adopts the magazine/newsmagazine?
After these considerations the author will start examining the body of the article, giving extreme importance at that good beginnings but also at the rest of the body of the piece.
Important: once the piece has been revised, should be submitted in a clear form. A piece sent to an editor sometimes is like a job interview. The editor will develop a certain idea of the person who sent the manuscript, just seeing in which condition it arrived in his hands.
The second part will let you show special articles published in the Boston Herald, New York Evening Post, The Independent, Detroit News and many more.
