This webinar was for any journalist looking to get tips on writing profile articles. Profiles are articles focused on an intriguing individual, whether from your community or beyond.

We're now done with an online liveblog to help teach you about interviewing profile subjects, writing the profile article and editing it thoroughly.

See the comment below for the transcript of the embedded liveblog.

This edition of News Reporting 101 looked at what it takes to turn an interesting person to an even more compelling article readers will want to bookmark.

DigitalJournal.com editors were available to answer questions, while also citing impressive examples of profile journalism.

The online class lasted for one hour.
