looking for someone who knows how to write newspaper style

#1 Post by Ocircuit » Fri Jan 04, 2008 6:00 am

Hi, I was just wondering if there is anyone out there who knows how to write newspaper styled entries which I need for my upcoming visual novel. I'm not really sure if I worded it correctly but in the beginning of my vn there will be somewhere between 5-10 newspaper entries shown, and I don't really know how to write in a way that would look like a professional journalist, so I was hoping maybe someone here might. I would supply you with the details for the entries and just need you to write them in newspaper fashion. And ofcourse I'd credit you for it. So would anyone be interested?

Sounds interesting. What kind of newspaper, though? Tabloid? Broadsheet? Opinion column?

Just give me the specifics, and I'll whip out the "articles" ASAP.
Korina Sanchez: Ex-sensei Mel, we've met again.
Mel Tiangco: I'm expecting this from my former student.
Korina Sanchez: I know all along the reason for your presence.
Mel Tiangco: Of course. Your hairbrush.
Korina Sanchez: Snatch it again? Well, you're mistaken. It's because my hairbrush's container is packed with security features. What's your say?
Mel Tiangco: If you can do security... (pause) then 120% of my strength will shatter it!
