How to Write for Magazines

Why pay $100 or more for an online writing class, when you can now get Moira Allen's complete course, "Breaking into Magazines," in one low-priced book? How to Write for Magazines is an entire 8-week course for the beginning writer, including "assignments" to help you hone the skills in each session. If you want to start selling your articles to magazines and online markets, this book will show you the way!

Having trouble finding article ideas? This book will show you how to explore your experiences, family life, professional expertise and more to come up with dozens (if not hundreds) of marketable article topics. At the same time, it demonstrates how to refine those topics by researching the markets -- and how that research can help you develop even more article ideas. By the end of the "class," you'll understand how to take an idea from basic concept to refined topic -- and expand on that idea to market article ideas to more than one publication. From there, you'll be ready to write a winning query -- and start your first draft!

The chapters in this book cover all the topics you need to break in, including:

  • Finding the Right Markets
  • Finding Article Ideas
  • Developing Your Concept
  • Writing the Query
  • Preparing E-mail Queries
  • Conducting Research and Interviews
  • Beginning Your Article
  • Selling Photos
  • Submitting Your Article: What Happens Next?
  • Rights, Contracts and Getting Paid
