Manuscript Submission Guidelines
The Newsletter welcomes clearly written, useful essays on all aspects of tutoring writing and administering a writing center. Recommended length is 2500 to 3000 words for articles and 1500 words for Tutors' Column essays and reviews. Please include Works Cited and footnotes as you do a word count (and use endnotes rather than footnotes). Please use MLA style. Essays sent to WLN are sent on to readers for a double-blind review, and many of these readers then offer to work with writers as they revise.
