March 2010 Editors Only Issue Available
Announcing the publication of the March 2010 issue of the Editors Only online newsletter.
New Britain, CT, April 18, 2010 --(PR.com)-- Editors Only, the monthly newsletter for publication editors, has published four new articles in the March 2010 issue of its online newsletter.
In "The Dirt on Online Magazines," research editor Meredith Dias explores some of the hype and myths surrounding online publication. The article discusses the lack of uniform online editing standards, the pros and cons of digitization, and some results from a recent Columbia Journalism Review study.
Professor Peter P. Jacobi emphasizes the importance of planning before writing in "Think and Plan." He lays out a basic blueprint for article writing: setting the scene, description, reflection, and summarization.
The "Fog Index" article analyzes the readability of an excerpt from Forbes.com. Editors Only revises the sample in order to improve readability and lower the Fog score. By trimming word count and eliminating longer words, the sample improves its score from 16 to 11.
Finally, in "Harmonizing Print and Online Magazines," designer Debbie Bates-Schrott discusses the importance of harmony between print and online editions. She emphasizes the need for publishers to adopt new strategies and not develop their online editions using outdated print strategies.
