    Storytelling—how to catch and hold a reader’s interest through artful narration of factual material
     
    William E. Blundell, one of the best writers on one of America's best-written papers—The Wall Street Journal—has put his famous Journal Feature-Writing Seminars into this step-by-step guide for turning out great articles. Filled with expert instruction on a complex art, it provides beginners with a systematic approach to feature writing and deftly teaches old pros some new tricks about:
     
    ·         How and where to get ideas
    ·         What readers like and don’t like
    ·         Adding energy and interest to tired topics
    ·         Getting from first ideas to finish article
    ·         The rules of organization
    ·         How—and whom—to quote and paraphrase
    ·         Wordcraft, leads, and narrative flow
    ·         Self-editing and notes on style
     
    … plus many sample feature articles.
