We invite Teacher Consultants to write posts for this site. Your writing will be displayed on the main page of the site and in the archives of the appropriate category.

What to Write

We’re open to your ideas, but here are some suggestions if you’re looking for a topic:

• Project Events: If you attended a Project-related event–such as a writing and reflection retreat, a conference on the teaching of writing, or some other event–write a post about your experience.
• Plans & Pedagogy: Tell others about short, practical lesson plans to bring writing into the classroom (cross-curricular ideas are encouraged), or share your theories and insights about the teaching of writing.
• Reviews: Discuss books, stories, and articles, whether literary works or instructional pieces about the teaching of writing.

Most blog posts work best at around 500-700 words, but shorter or longer pieces are possible. Before writing, browse or search through the site to make sure that we haven’t already published a similar post.

How to Submit

There are two ways to contribute to the site:

1. Use the Submission Form: Just fill out the form below, attach your writing or copy-and-paste it into the message, and we’ll publish it for you. In this case, the post will indicate “Posted by NVWP Admin,” but we’ll add your name as the author of the post.
2. Become a Registered Member: If you would like to write for this site on a somewhat-regular basis, you can register to become a member. Then, you’ll be able to login, write up your post, and submit it for publication. Once it’s reviewed, it will indicate “Posted by” your name (but we’ll still add your name as the author of the post). This method gives you more control over the format of the post and any images you wish to include. You’ll also be able to create drafts on the site to return to later. To register, complete the form on this page and we’ll contact you with details.
