DETAILS

This intensive course is designed for writers, editors, and bloggers who want to produce more content to advance their career and add to a body of published work. Class will operate like a writer’s workshop. Each week you will turn your ideas into a fully-executed article fit for publication, and you’ll create the pitch letters to match.

In this class, you will learn how to:

• Draft a pitch an editor can't turn down
• Understand the audience of a publication – and tailor your article accordingly
• Discover which magazines, websites, and blogs are most freelancer friendly
• Understand the difference between a good idea and a good article
• Edit yourself and manage tight deadlines

By the end of class, you will have:
A service or how-to piece, an arts and culture review, a profile, a metro section piece, an editorial, a business or news article, a personal essay, and multiple pitch letters.

Students from this class have been published in:
The New York Times, Portfolio, The Village Voice, The New York Observer, Pregnancy, Fit Pregnancy, and Real Simple.
