MAKE
ANY ARTICLE SALEABLE!
Getting firsthand expert quotes will beef up any nonfiction work and
make it more saleable. Learning the interviewing process will enable
the writer to add vitality and credibility to a manuscript.
WRITE THE PERSONALITY PROFILE!
You don't have to interview Harrison Ford or Julia Roberts to sell
a personality profile. Fascinating folks with unique lifestyles are
everywhere. Editors want writers who can interview the common person
who has done something uncommon.
THE Q's AND A's OF INTERVIEWING--FOR WRITERS is a practical, step-by-step
guide to the interviewing process with chapters on:
+ How to Get the Interview
+ Preparing the Question
+ Conducting the Interview
+ Writing the Personality Profile
+ Selling the Finished Manuscript
+ The Magazine Marketplace
+ Book Proposals
THE Q's AND A's OF INTERVIEWING--FOR WRITERS includes full-length
profiles of Sharon Stone, Jonathan Winters and George Washington (yes,
George Washington!) as well as authors, Joan Collins, Elmore Leonard
and Richard North Patterson.

Cork's interviews hack away the tinsel jungle that we celebrities live in and shows how we live, how we feel, how we think.
