- Master’s theses and dissertations
The structure and writing style of theses and dissertations vary from discipline to discipline and even from one university to another. Please send me a copy of your department’s guidelines.
- Professional journal articles
Style requirements vary considerably from one journal to another. To ensure that your article is ready for publication, please send a sample article from the journal to which you will be submitting your manuscript. In addition, please indicate your target word count.

- School applications
I offer a special application essay package that includes an orientation packet with essay writing tips, a brainstorming questionnaire, a personal interview, and all the coaching and editing you will need to write a first class essay. If you sign up for this package, you'll need to fill out Wordworks' brainstorming questionnaire, send your brag sheet, and fill in a college application grid. The grid includes the colleges you are applying to, their application due dates, and their essay choices. The application essay package includes templates for the brag sheet and the grid.
- Books
If you are planning to send your manuscript to a publisher, indicate prospective publishers. If you have an agent, please send his/her contact information as well. If you are planning to publish the book yourself, describe your intended audience. In either case, consider sending me titles of books that are similar to your book in content, genre, tone, and/or style.
- Other manuscripts (e.g., grants, reports, curricula, professional correspondence, newspaper and magazine articles, and brochures)
No matter what type of manuscript you send, please indicate your target word count, any style requirements, and your intended audience. If you have access to a manuscript that is similar to what you want your finished product to be, please send it.
