Writing Guides

A writing guide is a document that helps teach you how to write a particular type of document. It can also be called a style guide. These guides enable you to format, design, and write documents. They also show you how to correctly cite sources, both in the text of your paper and in your works cited or bibliography. Whatever academic writing you are doing, your professor has already told you what style to use. MLA, APA, Chicago, and Turabian are the most common style guides.

Whatever academic writing you are doing, your professor has already told you what style to use. MLA, APA, Chicago, and Turabian are the most common style guides. However, some colleges and universities may also have their own writing guides. You want to adhere to all the rules outlined in that style guide. Our writing guides do not replace those style guides.

Instead, our writing guides provide a good list of instructions to write specific types of academic papers. They define the type of paper and outline the steps you should take to write that type of paper. They can be helpful, especially for students writing an unfamiliar kind of paper.

According to our customers, the most helpful parts of the writing guides are the outlines and examples. Each writing guide contains an outline. The outline is for a five-paragraph essay but can be expanded for a longer paper. The outline shows how you want to structure your introduction, conclusion, and body paragraphs. You can use the outline to structure your essay.

We also include examples of how to write parts of the paper. You can use the samples to see how to translate the structure of the outline into an actual paper. You can use the writing guides alone. However, they are even better when you pair them with one of the thousands of available example papers. The example papers can help you see how someone would suggest tackling a similar writing project.
