I've been focusing on freelance writing for magazines. But I have several questions about writing for newspapers:
First, do newspapers ususally work with freelancers? (I'm assuming the answer here is "yes".)
Do editors for newspapers prefer queries where they can assign articles or (due to the more strict deadlines) would they rather recieve assignments on spec?
Is dealing with newspapers pretty much the same as dealing with magazines? What are the major differences?
P.S. I couldn't find another thread on this topic, so if anyone knows of one, please let me know.
