This guide is designed to help you, the author, enhance the appearance and readability of your text while making the Editor's life a little easier. In an organization like WAC, the diversity of skills and computer systems creates a very real problem in gathering articles and putting them into a newsletter with a consistent appearance. Hopefully, you will find answers to all of your questions about article style and submission procedures here. For specific style and punctuation questions, you may need another reference.
Many dictionaries contain general punctuation and style guides.
Spelling checker and grammar checker programs can be very useful resources for cleaning up articles before submission. However, in cases where external sources conflict with this guide, you should defer to the guide. Although the topic is up to you, the content of your article must be sensitive to WAC's diverse membership. Your article must not contain profanity or material which could be deemed offensive to any group or individual. As the saying goes, if you can't say something nice, we'd rather you didn't say anything at all.
