Adventures in long-form magazine editing

J-source has adapted and re-published an excellent article on long-form magazine editing, originally written last year by Bill Reynolds for Literary Journalism, the newsletter of the International Association for Literary Journalism Studies. Reynolds is head of the magazine stream at Ryerson University.

It's relatively unusual for such reflective writing about the craft, based on real stories and well-written itself (as opposed to turgid academic jargon). It provides good examples of how a story can be saved or made better by the way in which it is told.
