Interviews In Magazines

Since I will be interviewing Individuals in my magazine, I wanted to research how other magazines write their interviews. Surprisingly, they were all laid out the same.

However, most magazines considered these interviews to be Q&A's.

And like I've said before, self-acceptance, self-love, you know struggling with self is just really common today, unfortunately. Um but that in itself has the capability of attracting an audience and making them feel like they're there. Um and the reason being is because they too feel the same way. They've felt down about themselves, they felt like they weren't good enough, they've compared themselves and that in itself um, yeah they just feel like, you know they can engage with us, we can engage with them with our words.
