About 1 in 5 ppl don't or only sometimes include a cover letter when they submit a manuscript to a journal. Even those who always do, may struggle with what to include.
This Wednesday's #WeeklyWritingTip takes you through the process.

51% of people considered their first publication a big deal, another 38% still consider it a big deal now.

This Wednesday's #WeeklyWritingTip explores one of my pet peeves - the incorrect use of "should of", "would of", and "must of". It's surprising how often these show up.

@EChampagnePhD You might find a #WeeklyWritingTip of mine from a while back that explores when / how to use acronyms helpful: https://t.co/49PuYl66kN
Ah yes, acronyms - the scourge of medical or technical writing. How to define "unusual"?
Check out a #WeeklyWritingTip I wrote on this topic a while back:

#WeeklyWritingTip: Play Script
When developing each of your characters, consider their unique way of speaking. Do they grunt, or stutter? What kind of language do they use? Are they brief and frank, or do they often embellish?

#WeeklyWritingTip: Public Speech
Underpinning every great speech is a clear message. From the outset, ensure each sentence you write serves your overall point. If it doesn’t bring the audience closer to your core message, remove it! Enter the #QCEC: https://t.co/u2PdiR1yaj
#WeeklyWritingTip: Journalism
While journalism seeks to tell as full a story as possible, writing must always have a focus. Which question will your story answer: what exactly happened? The cause of the event? Or who is affected? https://t.co/JHzN1iGdnC

#WeeklyWritingTip: Poetry
Contrary to common belief, poetry often generates emotion through imagery rather than through abstract words. To start your poem, simply tell the reader what you see or how you feel. Share your #imagination: https://t.co/JHzN1iGdnC
