PUBLICATION SUPPORT SERVICES
I do not write the article for you. I can help you put it together and cheer you on as you learn how to do it.
$500 for reviewing an outline and providing a basic critique
$1,000 for reviewing a 10 page draft and each additional time I review a new draft
$1,000 for correcting simple structural problems
I have assisted multiple professionals and graduate students to successfully publish both their research and their personal experience stories. The best way to start this process is to find a mentor that you can work with and share some of your interest and experience. Talk to them about your goal. Share with them the answers to the following:
● Your timeline
● If you plan to be the sole author or will write with others
● The possible publications you will submit your manuscript to
○ Review the author guidelines for each
○ You can find the author guidelines for any journal by searching on the “journal name” and “author guidelines”
○ Trade journals are more open to personal experience articles, if your professional goals do require an academic journal, these journals are a great place to start
○ Send a letter to the editor to offer your idea for an article and they will direct you
● You can start with a presentation in a community or preferably professional organization. Ask the people you work with for suggestions
