The Magazine from Cover to Cover Third Edition

The third edition of the textbook I coauthored, The Magazine from Cover to Cover, has an all-new chapter on digital and online magazines by Lori Blachford, Peggy Fisher and Larry Stelter Chair of Magazine Journalism at Drake University. Plus updated information elsewhere.

The book comes with huge thanks to all the Drake alums who helped their former professors with insight into their jobs and the industry, including Rachel DeSchepper, Country Living; Joanna Linberg, Better Homes and Gardens; Michael Mettler, Sound + Vision; Wendy Naugle, Glamour; Tanner Stranksy, Entertainment Weekly; Megan Stotmeister, DailyCandy.com; Jill Waage, Better Homes and Gardens; and Kaelin Zawilinski, bhg.com.

Get PEP Talks Often

After 23 years building and shepherding the magazine program at Drake University, Professor Patricia Prijatel officially retired, but she hasn’t left her students high and dry. Prijatel takes her legendary ability to stay in touch with students and mentor them to the next level with her very own blog. From her virtual abode, she’ll guide any student (actually any of us!) who's wondering what it takes to get experience, who's anxious about finding a post-grad job, or who's mired in any career-related or industry-related confusion. And she’ll do it using your questions. Come find out what it takes to make it from a woman who’s been there.
