Whats your plan?

Write 5-7 sentences being as specific as possible. This is going to be the proposal to the editor (me) for your article. If I don't think that it is focused enough, you are not going to get "hired" and will have to resubmit your proposal, so make sure you are clear on your intentions and specific in your proposal.

Spelling and Grammar do count for this post!
