More suggestions...

Here are best tips for resume writing: 1. ACADEMIC QUALIFICATIONS:
Name of your degree, major subject and name of the university from where you got the degree. You can specify the grades unless they are poor.
This section would include your full name, contact information (address, telephone number, email etc.), birth date etc.
Under this, you can mention details regarding the languages you know. Read, write and speak format is preferable. Other things to include would be computer knowledge, and any other skill worth mentioning and that which can be useful at your workplace.
You can mention the relevant work experience. That means, try to associate the skills with the job. Try to use action words as far as possible. E.g. organized, planned etc.
This was related to the information that should be included. Basically, the things that should not be ignored. Apart from this, you can also include other information such as references, hobbies etc.
WHAT SHOULD BE THE LENGTH OF THE CV?
There are no ultimate rules. Be that as it may, all in all, a fresh graduate’s CV should extend no more than two sides of A4 size paper. In a review of American employers, 35% favoured a one page CV and 19% a two page CV with the others saying it relies on the position you are applying for.
These were a few of the important aspects related to best ways to write a resume.
Mate no idea where you get this information from but in finance that is considered to be a horrible CV Read up past threats, there is enough material here on WSO. Use something like the WSO or M&I template
Hard to say much as you haven't given us any information to work with. What kind of career are you interested in? What kind of articles are you writing? Plus it sounds like this is for college applications?
Regardless, unless you want to be a journalist or you're writing for an industry that aligns with your career goals it's not going be very material. It might make for an interesting point on your resume, but don't expect it to carry far

Work Experience: While writing about the work history, include experiences relevant to the job at hand. Your CV must show you as the best candidate of the lot. If you have less or no experience, think about skills that might help you in the role.
Education: Mention earlier education and educational institutions with a year of attendance and also write about achievements or grades.
Skills & Qualifications: Write about qualifications from either work experience or education which are related to the role.
Interests & Hobbies: Though not necessary, but if you are a fresher and you have less to mention about the experience, you need to write about your hobby and interests too.
