Synopsis

Ideas & Research was written to help you seize a scrap of fact, pull the rest into the light and turn the whole into the kind of article an editor shows everyone in the office - then everyone who buys the magazine.
Freelance writer Marshall Krantz guides you through this vital "pre-writing" phase. Follow his advice to claim a writing niche and sell editors on your expert status; pluck the gem-quality ideas from the landslide of daily impressions; mold your ideas for maximum interest; slant them to fit your market; bring the right approach to the important job of research - and have fun doing the work; develop a research strategy; make the most of public and specialized library collections, government information, public records and private sources; use your computer and find facts online; use your eyes, ears and other senses, and get your facts by conducting info-eliciting interviews and solid field research; and organize your material and select the best for your article.
Krantz's narrative is clear and practical; supporting anecdotes and quotations from other writers are richly personal. You get a vivid mosaic that informs by making points immediate and memorable.
