 (OMG, how cute is this little girl?)

1.  Consider The Audience
All magazines serve a specific niche audience

2.  Study The Submission Requirements
Magazines receive hundreds of queries for articles in any given week. Many editors simply will not look at a submission when their guidelines have not been followed.

3.  Magazine-Style Writing
A good magazine article should also contain plenty of research and statistics to back up the information presented.

4.  The Structure Of A Magazine Article
You can use a variety of techniques for a “hook,” such as an anecdote, eyewitness account or startling statistic. As you write, try to answer the following question: How does the topic affect the audience? The body of the magazine article should blend hard facts with the human interest.
