Lisa Breslin
Writing Center Coordinator

"Be passionate about your purpose before you even begin to write. If you are ambivalent, your writing will be as bland as Melba Toast."

Shelly Horn
“Realize that all drafts are a work in progress. Revise, revise, revise…turn it in!”

Jacqueline Pundt
“Proofread, have a roommate/friend proofread.”
Rachel Bryant
Andrew Lebo
“Just have fun!”

Teri Hamer
“Before you start writing, always organize your thoughts.”

Katie Hickey
Don’t use no double negatives. Or sentence fragments. And general, overused words are very, very, very…bad.
Chava Roth
“Pick a topic you’re passionate about and spread your soul across the page as you write! On a more ‘practical’ note, take a break between writing your first draft and editing – a fresh perspective always helps.”

Katharine Strong
“Try reading your paper upside-down to catch typos.”
Rob Goeke
“Come into the Writing Center with an open mind.”
Kacey Barnes
"“Proofread and spell-check – a writer’s best friends. Also, if you have writer’s block, make a rough outline of the ideas that you want to convey in your paper.”

Kaitlin McLean
“Read your writing out loud – you’ll find your mistakes that way.”


Brian Patterson
“Read your paper out loud. It will help.”
