The Review Process

1. Submit manuscript and receive acknowledgement of receipt.

2. Your essay will be reviewed by each member of the Editorial Board after the stated deadline on the CFP.

3. The board will meet and have an initial poll of votes according to a model of : "yes," "no," "revise and resubmit." The poll will include a brief statement by each editor in support of their vote.

4. If decisions are not unanimous during intial vote, the board will discuss essay in depth with the goal of reaching consensus.

5. If consensus cannot be reached, we will vote according to majority rule. Editors with minority votes will have final say as to whether the majority decision as written is acceptable to them. If it is not acceptable we will continue to discuss the manuscript until acceptability is reached.

6. You will be informed of the decision of the board.

Revise and Resubmit

We are committed to working with authors whose work fits within the framework of the e-journal and/or the theme of the edition in question. We will work in conversation with all authors for the best outcomes possible. We understand that the desire to maintain authortial voice may some times superseded the confines of the e-journal format. Any questions, concerns, etc. will be answered and discussion amongst all participants strongly encouraged.

Rejection

Upon request, we will provide feedback in the following format: 1. vote: # yes, # no, # revise and resubmit, 2. overall comments of entire board reflecting our consensus/majority discussion, 3. itemized comments from each reviewer listed as reviewer 1, reviewer 2, etc.

Due to the labor and technological constraints involved in publishing an e-journal we can no longer accept submissions that are not in print ready quality for review.

Any rejected submissions will be destroyed using bleaching software.

If you have any questions please contact Editorial Board. Questions will be discussed amongst the entire board prior to your receiving an answer.
