Best and Real People magazines
Why sell your story to just one magazine when you can appear in two? Allison Noyce’s delightful story about how she gave birth to her gorgeous baby girl after going through the menopause appeared on the cover of Best mag and then over two pages of Real People.
A mum at last…
Having two deals meant two lovely cuttings to show Sophie when she’s older – and two payments as well!
Getting your story into two magazines is only possible when you go through Featureworld as I am an agent who specialises in gaining you multiple deals.
Featureworld can often arrange for your story to appear in a newspaper and on TV as well if you wish!
Take a Break and Reveal magazines…
Selling her story via Featureworld meant Joanne Coleman’s emotional story about how her husband died just seven days after their baby girl was born, appeared in two magazines – she also appeared in the Sunday People newspaper, on ITV This Morning and on the Daily Mail website.
At Featureworld I send your story to all the magazines on the market at once and ask editors to put in their best price. This means I know for sure when we get a deal, that it is the best one. It also means – as with Joanne’s story – that you could appear in Take a Break and Reveal magazine (as well as in a newspaper and on TV if you wish.) But this sort of multiple magazine deal is only available when you sell your story via Featureworld.
Why sell a story to one magazine, when you can sell to two? Remember, every time we sell your story to a magazine or newspaper, you are paid. If, like Joanne, you would like your story to appear in a magazine such as Take a Break and Reveal, then contact us using the form to the right of this page >>>

Featureworld managed to gain them front page exposure in both BEST magazine and REAL PEOPLE magazine.
Our 28-year age gap doesn’t worry us! Story in THAT’S LIFE magazine…

I’ve spent £30,000 on perfecting my face…
Daniella Ellis wanted to sell a story to raise awareness of Body Dysmorphic Disorder. This is a medical condition where perfectly attractive people wrongly believe they are ugly.

Paris’s story was sold to BELLA magazine and has also been sold to a national newspaper.
She says: “I am so glad I made the decision to sell my story. Seeing my story in the magazine made me realise how much I had gone through. And I hope telling my story will have helped other young mums.”

Earlier in the year, I sold Malissa Jones’ true story about how she lost 20 stones to the News of the World newspaper and Reveal magazine. But when I rang Malissa to see how she was, she confessed, she was very unhappy.

Desperate to save enough money for cosmetic surgery, she asked me, ‘Can you sell my story to a magazine again?’
So Malissa’s new truelife story was resold to glossyCloser magazine where she appeared on theCOVER of this popular women’s weekly magazine.
