Your legal name, pen name (if any), address, phone, and e-mail should be placed in the upper left corner of the manuscript, in a single-spaced block. The word count (rounded to the nearest 100) should go in the upper right corner. Your title should be centered on the page at the halfway point, in the same font and size as the text.
