Select a Writing Program...
Get started by writing your work or manuscript and saving it in one of the following formats:

    .rtf (preferred) Rich Text Format - Most all of the word processors (Microsoft Word, Word Perfect, etc.) will allow documents to be saved in this format.
    .txt Text Only - Again most all of the word processors will allow documents to be saved in this format.

         If you are not familiar with this process follow these instructions:
                1. Open your manuscript (finished work) in your word processor.
                2. Once you are looking at it - go to the file menu on the top left corner - left click once to open the menu.
                3. About five items down you will see Save As... - left click once to continue.
                4. The Save As... window opens and you are almost there.  Chose a familiar spot to save the document to.
                    Next to the words Save in:  you will find a white area (known as a field).  This field must contain the location
                    where you would like to save this document to.  Such as My Documents.  For further instructions see HELP in
                    your word processor.
                5. At the very bottom of the Save As... window you will find a similar field after the words Save as type:  to the
                    far right of this field you will find a small button with an arrow pointing down.  Left click once on this button.
                6. You should now be looking at a list.  This list will contain several choices.  Select either Rich Text Format (*.rft)
                    or Text Only (*.txt).
                7. Just above this field you will find a field for the name of your document. You do not have to worry about ending
                    the name with .rft or .txt because the word processor will do that automatically for you.

You are finished with this part.

                  Cover Page...  make sure that your document is saved with a cover page.  The very first page should be the cover page
                                            and should have the following information:

                                            1. The title of the work.
                                            2. The full name of the author.
                                            3. Mailing address in full.
                                            4. Contact phone number.
                                            5. E-mail address (very important for communication between us and the author/you)
                                            6. The words Copyrighted (and then the current year)
                                                this is the author/you declairing that this is your unique work and when it was shown to the public.
