    About this ebook

    Write to Publish is the ideal guide for anyone who wants to see their articles in print. Whether you want to make a living as a freelance journalist, edit a newsletter, or contribute occasional articles to a small publication, it gives you all the information you need to get started. Vin Maskell and Gina Perry have compiled a complete overview to the process of writing an article-from the initial idea, to research, writing, editing, and finding a publisher. Write to Publish features interviews with experienced writers, editors and journalists who provide tips and rare insights into the world of feature writing. It also includes information on the business side of freelance writing. Practical exercises at the end of each chapter offer the reader the chance to develop and extend writing and editing skills. Write to Publish can be used by students as a text in a writing class, by writers working as freelancers, or by those who want to start writing for publication.
