You've done the reporting, the thinking, and maybe even some writing. But how do you put it together? How do you structure a feature story, so that it makes sense, grips your audience, and satisfies your editor? This introductory course gives you the skeleton. It's a basic formula used by many professional journalists and writers, which can be applied to a wide-variety of non-fiction story forms, whether print or online. Once you understand it, you will be able to report and write efficiently from the start. And you will be able to write organized, relevant and elegant pieces.
