Q. What kind of writers write for the Greenville Journal?
A. Not everyone starts off as a journalist. A lot of the people in the Journal have training before they even consider writing for it.
Q. What are the different types of articles that are written?
A. City government, community (fundraisers), cultural (arts), food articles (like recipes).
Q. What is the publishing process? How do you print the newspaper?
A. The writing is mostly done on the website. There is a dashboard in the Journal that shows what everyone is doing, and it can track people around the world who are reading the same newspaper. When the Journal is finished, we upload it as PDF files, and a company in Georgia prints it. Within 2 ½ days after uploading and sending it, we get the newspaper.
Q. What other things do you publish in the journal besides articles?
A. Mostly ads and sometimes recipes.
Q. What kind of people do you expect to write for the Journal?
A. Sometimes, city leaders submit something, but we are mostly looking for professional writers. We’re looking for people who follow the news and like reading magazines and newspapers.
Q. Have any young or younger people written an article for the Journal?
A. We usually don’t have high school students, but we do have a lot of college kids who may be interested in journalism as a career. Most of these students try an internship.
Q. If I were interested in getting published in the Journal, what would I have to do?
A. You would first have to lay out your idea on the website or by e-mail. When we get it, you'll need to send us some clips of past work, since you’re a new writer. If we decide that your writing is eligible for the Journal, then you would write your article and send it to us.
