Unlike hard news, a feature follows a narrative arc meant to capture the reader's imagination.
End with a resolution or a lingering thought that provides the reader with a sense of payoff. Common Types of Features
Start with a hook. This could be an anecdote, a vivid description of a scene, or a provocative question to set the mood.
To write a compelling feature, whether for a magazine or a screenplay, you must transition from reporting facts to telling a human story. Core Structure of a Feature Article
Use a "transition-quote" format to weave together your own descriptive narrative with insights from interviewees. Use sensory details to "show, don't tell" the story.
Follow the lead with a paragraph that explains the story's "why"—the essential theme or purpose—in a nutshell.
