So you want to be a science journalist? That is a great ambition. My boss told me he wanted to be one but ended up an engineer.

Why not just write and submit them?

Several teachers/professors advised me to go about the paper-writing process thusly:

1) Tell them what you're going to tell them (introduction)
2) Tell them (body)
3) Tell them what you told them (conclusion)

If you're writing a journalistic piece, the axiom is to envision a triangle and write the story in such fashion:

1) The most important things go at the top (brief description of the main story)
2) The details follow (main body -- describe the event in detail)
