Writing Counselors, LLCLogo Design Contest

Could you please try to incorporate a cap and gown or diploma scroll in the design? Not sure if that's what we want, but it would definitely highlight our target audience.

We like the fountain pen more than the stylus as it is a softer look but not necessarily too feminine (we are trying to attract male and female clients). We really like the figure in #12 but again it's a little hard to read the word when the figure substitutes for the letter "I". We like the clarity of the letters in #7 and #13. What would it look like to put the figure from #12 where the fountain pen is in #7? We like the "swish" under the letters. In #14, we like the shading under the diploma - could you try a different font? Generally, we like the logo in a more horizontal setting as opposed to the fuller look in #1-4. Thank you. We appreciate ALL of the entries!

Can you try adding dimension to the lettering or add a pediment or base or item of interest under the lettering?

Could you please try to add a building or college landscape behind or adjacent to the lettering?
