Have you ever wanted to give someone “a piece of your mind” but just could not find the right platform? Writing opinion-editorial (Op-Ed) pieces may just be the perfect way for you to do it. Op-Ed pieces are a great way to publicly express outrage, indignation, support, convictions, ideas, and other emotions about current or pending issues, activities, policies, plans, or practices. If your Op-Ed piece is on a hot topic and well written, it can inspire and stimulate hundreds and thousands of other people’s minds and hearts. All newspapers and most magazines and journals devote a page or two in each issue to the presentation of a column by outside authors—specialists, readers, columnists, and sometimes staff writers—in which a subject of current and general public interest is explored. It often appears near editorial columns written by the newspapers’ own editors and columnists. Op-Ed pieces make exciting reading. They tend to be informal and opinionated. If you have strong feelings on a subject, know your facts, present them intelligently, acknowledge divergent opinions as well as your own, and make your case carefully but with flair, you too could have an Op-Ed article published.
