Author: Peter Jacobi

Publisher: Writers Digest Books 1991

ISBN: 9780898794502
Size: 6 x 9 * 247 pages with index
Synopsis: Your job as a writer is to captivate your audience by making what you have to offer of great interest or importance. This is where your creativity comes it-it's where you make the most of a subject by being original and inventive.
But how do you do that? How can you put yourself in your reader's place and still maintain your own perspective? Here Peter Jacobi shows you how, from the idea to the printed page. You'll begin by exploring eight writing techniques-like perspective freshening, clarity and compression-and then you'll practice using those techniques in your article writing. You'll learn by example, analyzing award-winning articles from top publications, including The New Yorker, Playboy and The Atlantic Monthly, just to name a few. You'll also find new ways to turn everyday subjects into compelling article ideas, thirteen "blueprints" to use as your master plan for outlining an article, and helpful suggestions for using storytelling techniques to humanize your article.
This book will not only motivate and inspire you, it will also help you become a better writer. You'll learn to write with style and flair and verbal excitement-in other words, you'll learn to captivate your audience. - From Jacket
