Know the target reader

One of the keys to magazine writing is being able to target to different readers. As any good journalist knows, you must always keep your target reader in mind whenever you are writing a piece for a magazine as this will help to produce a piece that the readers will find interesting.

This is why it is important to know your reader before you start writing. It’s no good writing a piece and then sending it to a load of magazine titles to see if they are interested because nine times out of ten, they will be able to spot that you haven’t written it just for them.

Research the target audience of the publication before you begin writing and you will be halfway there to writing a feature that will be suitable for publication.
