Guidelines for Submission

Please send articles with a separate cover sheet, seeing that your name appears nowhere else in the body of the paper, to facilitate blind reviewing. Articles should be in the ballpark of 6500 words.

Unsolicited book reviews will be considered, although most will be invited (and you may also ask to be invited). Book reviews should be in the ballpark of 2000 words. Review essays can run to 3500 words.

Please use footnotes rather than endnotes. (For book reviews, use internal citation style).

If you must use paper mail, please submit two copies, double-spaced and printed in a 12-point font, and if at all possible accompanied by a copy on floppy disk.  Click here for the address.

If you want to email a submission (the preferred submission mode), you may attach Word files or WordPerfect files in most versions, and I'll almost certainly be able to open it, but I reserve the right to complain if I have trouble. Please use Times New Roman, 12-point font, double-spaced.
