Product description

From the Back Cover

Relying on the basic principles of journalism, Feature Writing makes feature writing accessible for students through a combination of student and professional examples.

While most other texts focus on high-level professional feature writing, Feature Writing focuses on entry-level writing, a skill that students will need to develop for their early careers. Each chapter covers specific aspects of feature writing and reviews the applicable principles of journalism. This student-friendly text speaks to readers in conversational yet informative, organized prose. Students will gain confidence as they study features written at an accessible level as well as gain insight from exemplary professional writing examples.

Features

  • Provides over 40 examples of feature writing, demonstrating a variety of feature stories and how they are written.
  • Features student-written examples in every chapter, allowing students to see other students' work and gain confidence in their own writing abilities.
  • Includes Chat Room sections that provide questions and activities to help students analyze feature writing and develop their own feature stories.
  • Includes Help! sections at the end of each chapter that highlight and define important terms and concepts.
