Find the story editors want to publish
A great story angle will outperform a great pitch almost every time. The quality of your pitch is usually determined long before you begin typing, by the story you choose, the angle you take and the preparation you do first.
What’s inside
- Before You Pitch: reading the publication, finding the right editor, understanding its mission, and why timing matters more than you think
- The Difference Between a Good Story and a Great Pitch: where story ideas really come from, and the “Why now?” test every editor applies
- Finding Your Story Angle: choosing one focused idea and the stories editors remember
- Your workbook: three worksheets — the Pre-Pitch Checklist, Brainstorming Your Story Angles, and the Story Angle Exercise
Format
Beautifully designed flipbook, 25 pages, including three workbook worksheets. Delivered instantly after purchase. Yours to keep.
Guide two of three, alongside Media Mindset and The Editor’s Pitch Checklist. Each guide can be read on its own, but they’re designed to work best together.
