This review is from: Free-Lancing: A Guide to Writing for Magazines and Other Markets (Paperback)

FREE-LANCING: A GUIDE TO WRITING FOR MAGAZINES AND OTHER MARKETS is one of the most useful textbooks that I acquired as an undergraduate journalism student. It provides clear and understandable descriptions of types of writing (personality profiles, roundups, reviews, travel writing, etc.) as well as good tips on how to get published (marketing, querying, and submitting your work). The many sidebars give good illustrations of what to do and what NOT to do. This text is a practical and down-to-earth textbook, especially valuable for freelancers who are new to the field.
