Frequently Asked Questions

  • I provide:

    • high level developmental guidance as you write and revise.

    • comprehensive support for graduate-level writing projects and career progression.

    • experienced support for navigating the peer-review process, including journal selection and submission.

    • publication strategy and support.

  • Academic writing and the coaching support I provide is very similar for both military and civilians. However, my familiarity with military culture, language, and expectations for writing sets Whisper Lake Writing apart.

    The conventions of writing for a military audience can be very different than the conventions of writing for an academic audience. I can help you navigate these differences and transition smoothly between worlds if, for example, you’re an experienced military leader undertaking a broadening assignment at a civilian university. Or maybe you're a military leader moving from the field to the classroom as you continue your military education. I understand these transitions and am here to help.
