Call for Papers: Second Draft

The Second Draft invites submissions for its Winter/Spring 2015 issue. The theme is “Why legal writing is the most important first year course.” The theme is intentionally broad, as we hope to receive articles that explore a wide range of topics related to this general theme. Submissions should be sent to TheSecondDraftLWI@gmail.com by 5pm EST on August 1, 2014.

Please follow the following convention for the subject line of your email: Name, Article Submission, Issue (e.g. “John Doe Article Submission Winter/Spring Issue 2015″). Articles should be submitted in Microsoft Word. Please include at the top of the Word document your name, title, school, address (including city, state, and zip code), e-mail address, and phone number. Articles for The Second Draft have historically been approximately 1,200 words in length, but the Board is open to considering longer articles as well. Articles should adhere to professional writing norms and follow Bluebook citation requirements. im
