I am in the last stages of editing the ENCYCLOPEDIA OF THE SUPREME
COURT for Facts on File, Inc. I have about 95 orphaned essays in need
of authors. I have enclosed the list of unassigned terms below along
with the word counts for each essay.
The writing of these essays is fun and easy, giving you both a fast
cite on your vita and an opportunity to contribute to a project aimed at
high school and college students and the general public. This is also a
great opportunity for graduate students to get credit for a
publication.
If you are interested in writing on any of these essays, let me know
ASAP. Tell me what you would like to write on and I will confirm and
then send style information etc. I would need your essays back by
December 3!
Essays will be assigned on a first come, first serve basis.
Thank you!
