What is the potential for writing as a freelance for magazines?
There are well over 8,000 mainstream magazines published in Britain and many hundreds of alternative publications. Magazine publishing is big business: research suggests that weekly consumer magazines are read by 39% of adults and monthlies by 48%. Freelancing for magazines will normally involve writing features, so it’s important from the outset to have a clear idea about the different journalistic genres. Each will have its own writing style, research strategy, tone, and place in the publication.
