It's a bird! It's a plane! No - it's the staff of Word Planet, here to help you with IFP!

We here at Word Planet think it's important to get a second opinion. Our job is not only to improve your short story or poem but also to help you guys become better writers. That's why at any time during the semester you can send your piece over to us!

 Here's how it works:
  • Email your piece to wordplaneteditors@gmail.com along with the prompt and any questions you may have, and we'll get it back to you within 24 hours with suggestions.
  • We can help you brainstorm ideas from an instructor's prompt, revise a draft of a story or poem, or just check your work for simple stuff like spelling and grammar.
  • Want to meet face to face with an editor for a personal workshop? Email us with a request for a physical workshop. We'll work out a place and a time.
  • A group of Writing Seminars majors on our staff, from sophomores to seniors, is available to help students in Writing Seminars courses (especially IFP) with their classwork.
We hope to see you around!
