Writing for Magazines and Trade Journals

As a writer of 75 or so magazine articles a year for the Maritime press, I found your course most interesting and thought provoking. The handouts and references were especially valuable since this is how I make a living today. . . . In my 40 plus years of writing for trade magazines yours was the first course I have actually taken since college in the craft of writing for the trade press and I had a blast every week. —Larry Pearson

I submitted my advice column to [the business editor] a month ago . . . and he e-mailed me back in 5 minutes to say that the advice column has been well received all the way to the top at the TP. I am excited. —Lyn Lobman

I did the query letter assignment and went ahead and emailed it to the editor. . . . Their guidelines said they didn’t accept queries from anyone but “professionals” but I told him it was a class assignment. He actually read it and responded the NEXT day! This never happens to me. So thank you. I probably wouldn’t have done it had it not been for your class. —DeDe Cale
