I accept electronic submissions only. I prefer Google Docs, The .docx format is also acceptable. 

Please plan to submit single scenes or chapters at least two days before our scheduled call. For a manuscript diagnostic, submission is due at least three weeks in advance.

If your manuscript has more than five or six active (speaking) characters, please include a character list with your submission to help me stay on track as I read.

To save time, please check your manuscript against the following general guidelines before submitting. Let readability be your guide.

Formatting basics:

• Double-spaced.
• 12-point font in a standard serif or sans-serif face. A larger font size is okay if you need that.
• First-line indent and no extra space between paragraphs.
• Left justified.
• Margins 1″ or metric equivalent all around.
• It’s helpful if you can number your pages.
• Please also number your scenes or chapters.
• Give your document a filename such as “[Your initials] Ch 1” or “[Your name] Scene 6-7” that will help me find and manage it.
