Parenting Magazine feature articles and notes

 When reading the Anatomy of a feature article from Thefreelancers year, I've learned many different aspects when it comes to feature articles. The website states that a feature article hooks the readers by speaking on personal stories that people have the ability to relate to or compare theirselves to. One such quote from the website is

"it has evocative personal stories and a strong ‘trend’ hook and research base, as well as having people share how they have grown despite enormous trauma to do incredible things."

I specifically enjoy the "enormous trauma" part because it shows that anyone can relate to it, even if they have gone through something horrible, the feature article can relate and possible make a difference to them.

The website includes an example of the authors own feature article and the process she went through to get it published. This example tells a story that had the ability to speak to people and warn them about the dangers of losing a child. The author explains that while writing she wondered how many people in all have experienced that and knew she had to bring this story to the public for those families.

This feature article has shown me that the article for my magazine should be something that has the ability to speak to people and make a difference, the story, as stated in the website should allow people to share how they've grown and to be able to have a voice through the story. This analysis has allowed me to discern what type of feature article I want to write in my magazine.

See you later! Over and out!
