Writing creative non-fiction articles—the kind that fill newsstand magazines—can be lucrative if you know how to break into the market. This workshop will cover such topics as targeting audience, tracking down ideas, crafting great hooks, and filling your articles with style and substance. Whether your passion is fly-fishing, computers, or collection mushrooms, the instructor will show you how to take those first steps toward publication.
