TEN REASONS WHY WRITTEN REPORTS FAIL

JOURNAL ARTICLESChoose a topical, original piece of research.Do your market research – find out which journal publishes articles in your subject area.Check on submission guidelines – produce an article in the correct style and format and of the right length.Read several copies of the journal to get an idea about the preferences of editors.If you are thinking about writing for a trade publication, approach the editors by letter, asking if they might be interested in an article. Include a short summary of your proposed article.Produce a succinct, clear, interesting and well-written article – ask friends, tutors or colleagues to read it and provide comments.Make sure there are no mistakes, remembering to check the bibliography.
