Written by an experienced journalist, this is an exploration of freelance writing for newspapers. It covers the importance of knowing your readers, contact with editors, how to write regular features, reviewing, interviewing and meeting deadlines - as well as how to acquire a flow of ideas.

In magazines, non-fiction offers many opportunities for the freelance writer. This book discusses surveying the field, ideas, research, style and structure, selling work, interviewing, supplying pictures and problem solving. It includes a section on electronic aids for the magazine writer.
