March 5, 2010, Newsletter Issue #272: Manuscript Submissions

Tip of the Week

Do not staple pages together. Editors want to look through pages quickly without dealing with staples and locked in edges. If necessary, put a paper clip over one corner, but never a binder clip.

Be sure your first page includes all your contact information. Editors need to know your name, address, e-mail address and phone number.

Put page numbers on all your manuscript pages. Next to the numbers, put your last name and a brief form of the title. You donīt want to lose a sale because the editor dropped your papers and couldnīt get them back in the right order to read them.
