As an Associate Editor at Future News, I've had the opportunity to write and structure several long-form articles and feature stories. One that stands out is a deep-dive I wrote into the growing world of eSports. In creating this piece, I first conducted comprehensive research, interviewing industry figures and collating data on the industry's growth.
After research, I spent time carefully constructing an outline. The primary story arc followed a local eSports team from formation to winning a national championship, interspersing their narrative with informational sections on the industry at large.
After the publication of the piece, it was one of the most-read articles on our website for that month. I believe the combination of a compelling narrative with fact-driven data segments attracted and retained readers' attention.
