    Extractions: Writing For Magazines by Gail Miller "Writing for magazines" What a title! Many books have been written about magazine writing, and to try to condense everything there is to know here would be futile indeed. Therefore I am going to concentrate on writing short items. Features which can be slotted in between other jobs. We all have half an hour here or there which could be utilised for writing, so here I am going to briefly outline how to present work and give you a few ways to generate ideas for your articles. Presenting your work Always check who the current editor of the publication you are targeting is. Always enclose an SAE and don't be in too much of a hurry to receive your reply. Magazines work through their mail very slowly and a wait of three or four months to find out if work has been accepted is not out of the ordinary. Submit manuscripts on one side of white A4 paper and print in black ink. Put your name, address and telephone/email number on every page and leave generous margins all around the page. If you use more than one page for your feature, number each page. Double space your work and use around size 12 font size. Generating ideas If your mind cannot generate ideas to write about, your typing fingers certainly won't be able to get into action. Therefore it is a good idea to start an 'ideas file' which will contain cuttings of anything which you have seen that fires your imagination. Start collecting news snippets, facts and figures, humourous news items - in fact anything that will get your creative juices flowing. Try to talk to as many people as you can in your day to day life and don't be afraid to eavesdrop either! You can pick up some fantastic stories listening in to other people's conversations. No really! Just don't make it too obvious.

    Extractions: If you want to make it as a professional writer, you will eventually need to be branch out into the world of magazines. While many new writers are intimidated by the major magazines and editors, it is important to realize that they are not so different from any other publication. Aside from the fact that they print monthly, most magazines are just looking for knowledgeable writers who have a passion for their subject. If you want to write for magazines, or any other publication, simply write what you know and the rest will fall into place. As you progress through your career, you may want to experiment with subjects that require research. The best approach to writing for magazines is to scour the supermarket for a few magazines that cover a favorite sport, hobby or subject that you are most knowledgeable about. Pick up a few copies and browse through the table of contents page. There is generally a tab featuring the names of editors, along with a mailing address for the magazine, a website and perhaps an e-mail address. Contact the editors directly and inquire about writing for their publication. If requested, send samples of your work and several ideas for a column that you would like to write. It isn't necessary to have previously published work samples, but it may help to show the editor that other publications, including local newspapers, have published your work. When speaking to magazine editors, always remember to be yourself. If you try to sound a certain way that you think editors want to hear, they will see right through the disguise. Magazines naturally invoke intimidation, but editors are just people too. Be personable and friendly, laugh if something is funny and speak to them as you would an old friend. If they like who you are, they will like your writing. The people who read magazines are people just like you and they want to read something written by a genuine person.

    Extractions: To receive this series of 14 articles compiled as a PDF report, please see the end of the article. Writing for magazines is a great way to promote your business or your web site or to establish yourself as an expert in your field. However, convincing a magazine to publish your writing is not always easy. Have you wondered how you go about getting a magazine to publish your writing? There is a right way and a wrong way to go about doing this. When writing for magazines, you must understand one key fact: Magazines are businesses. They operate to please two distinct groups of people: their readers and their advertisers. Please note that writers are not included on that list. If you can figure out a way to help the magazine please their readers and advertisers, you are a big step ahead of many other writers who are competing with you for the magazine's content space. When you begin your magazine writing project, the first step is to be honest with yourself about who will be interested in your topic. When you have a business or service, its tempting to believe your own press and start thinking the whole world wants to know about your wonderful enterprise. Sadly, unless you've discovered the fountain of youth, it just isn't so. Let's say you have developed a product that helps golfers reduce their handicap. Now you want to promote your product and establish your expertise by writing a golfing article for a magazine. Your first step when writing for magazines is to clarify exactly who is going to be interested in reducing their golf handicap.

    Extractions: To receive this series of 14 articles compiled as a PDF report, please see the end of the article. Where do you find all of these magazines? Visit the Writers Market Web site at Writers Market or check out the book at the Amazon link to the side. A magazine will consider using your article provided they have a different readership than the other magazines that have published it. Regional magazines, for example, are open to using previously published articles if the other publications covered a different location. Or, you might sell an article on wine appreciation,for example, to both a men's magazine and a women's magazine, since these publications reach different readers. You have yet another option for reselling your article. You can rewrite and revise it to make it appealing to different groups of readers. When I initially begin researching an article, I identify diverse publications that might consider using variations of my article. I do my research accordingly. For example, suppose I want to write and sell an article on ocean kayaking - which is a particular interest of mine. So who might be interested in ocean kayaking?

User-Submitted Article Do you long to see your name in print as the byline on a magazine article? If you love to write, you can break into the lucrative magazine writing market. It's a bit different form online writing, and you may need to work harder and longer at your craft in order to sell a magazine article. But magazine writing pays more - a lot more. The typical 1,000 to 2,000 word magazine article pays anywhere from $200 to $2,000, probably much more than you could make writing a similar number of words for online publishers. While it's true that many magazines have ceased publication, there's still strong demand for well-written articles, especially on niche topics. Here's how to break into magazine writing and make your dreams of magazine writing come true. Difficulty: Moderate In order to write a magazine article, you will need to generate an idea for the story and pitch or sell it to the magazine's editor. This process is called a query letter. Query letters are important because they introduce an idea, sell it, and sell your credentials to write the story. Begin with magazines you know and like. What stories do you think would interest them? What hasn't been covered in the past year?
