Newsletter Submissions - Get your name in print!

Don't miss the following opportunities to write for the WAMFT Newsletter.  Interested?  Contact editor Suzi Mohn (suzi@europa.com) for details ...

 n      Do you have an opinion, a comment, an idea – even a rant or rave – that you would like to share with our membership?  Beginning with the next issue, the WAMFT newsletter will have a Letters to the Editor feature!  Please submit your comments.  Let your voice be heard!

 n      Have you discovered a book that you think would be valuable reading for fellow MFTs?  How about a movie that offers professional value to your colleagues or clients?  The WAMFT newsletter is looking for a few good writers to do the occasional book or movie review.  Word length should be roughly 400-600 words.  We would like to feature at least one such piece in every issue, but would welcome more than one writer’s perspective.  Again, the deadline is May 1. 

 n      As you have seen featured in past issues, the WAMFT newsletter welcomes and encourages member perspective pieces – articles that portray specific clinical experiences that offer educational and/or inspirational insights to your colleagues.  Approximate word length should be 800-1,200 words.
