New Book for Rising 1Ls
Dear Rising 1L, I’m so excited to tell you about a new book meant just for you!
It’s called “Dear 1L: Notes to Nurture a New Legal Writer,” and it’s due out June 25, 2024.
If you read it, you’ll learn:
-What to expect every month of 1L
-How to research & write the 1L fall memo
-How to approach & outline IRAC essays for exams
-How to write the 1L spring advocacy brief
-How to prepare a legal job application
You will also get:
—a 30-point self-editing checklist,
—all my models, templates & cheat sheets, PLUS
—all my legal-writing posts, updated and adapted for 1L.
As you’ll come to learn, writing is the common thread that runs throughout every aspect of your 1L year. 
Master the writing part during pre-law summer, and you’ll have a huge leg up going into the fall.
And, if you think I’m biased (and I am 
), check out what some students and others say about Dear 1L on the attached back cover.
My dream is that the book becomes a desk-side companion that you’ll refer to again and again, both during law school and beyond as you become a professional legal writer.

P.S. I realize you’re probably wondering, “Who the heck is this Amanda lady, and who does she think she is writing this book?” More on that to come soon, I promise.
All help in getting the word out is greatly appreciated.
