Getting newspaper articles published depends greatly on the size of the newspaper that you approach. If you are not a journalist and do not have newspaper writing experience, there is still a good chance of your getting an article published if you go about it the right way.

  1. Sign up to be a freelancer. Most newspapers with medium to large circulations rely to some extent on local freelancers. Calling the features editor of the newspaper is the best bet for getting a foot in the door. Features are human interest stories, and they are the most likely type of story to be accepted from freelancers. Medium to large newspapers, with a circulation of 50,000 or more, may have meetings where local freelancers can come and be assigned features or other news items to write about.

  2. Come up with an interesting idea. If your article is about something that has not been written about in the local newspaper, it will be more interesting to an editor than something that has already been written about.

  3. Write spec work. If a medium to large newspaper does not have a formal freelancing network, it may be worth it to write a speculative article and send it in. If this is sent with a follow up phone call, it can get you noticed by the section editor, who decides what will go in his section. Be sure to send it directly to the editor of the appropriate section.

  4. For small newspapers, the story is very different. Small newspapers usually have very small, overworked editorial departments, and welcome a story that can go in as written. This means making the item a complete story that will not need editing. Make sure the grammar is correct and that all of the facts have been checked. More than one source should be used in the story.
