First Published in 1988. This book shows beginning journalists what literary techniques are and how they are applied in newspaper writing. It can be used in more than one course. For feature writing courses, Writing Literary Features can serve as the main text. One of this book’s strengths is the attention it pays to how the reporters gathered the information that they eventually put into a literary shape.
"Journalists must put a certain degree of attractive enticement in their stories, if those stories are to be read by a passive audience that has learned to ask of newspapers that they provide more than stock-market figures, weather reports, or baseball scores."
—William M. Chase,
Stanford University, from the Introduction
"Thanks for a clear, concise, and thoroughly interesting text -- it will make my job much more enjoyable."
