Reception of manuscript email: jede@writersbureau.net / jedejournal@gmail.com
Acknowledgement: Once the manuscript has been submitted, the journal’s editor or editorial staff will acknowledge receipt with an e-mail.
First reading: The journal conducts an in-house review to determine if the manuscript is suitable for publishing consideration. Once in-house review is done, the Journal sends an e-mail to indicate that the manuscript has been sent out for review (peer review). If the article is rejected on an in-house reading, the editor will inform you of the decision and may offer an explanation for the rejection. If the rejection letter offers suggestions for improving the manuscript, consider the advice carefully.
Referees: The editor will send your manuscript to several referees. Editors select referees on the basis of the manuscript’s subject matter and the needs of the journal. The referee process usually takes 6 to 8 weeks. Review of manuscripts is a double-blind process. The author does not know who reviewed the manuscript, and the referees do not know who wrote the article.
Feedback from the referees: Referees advise the editor that the manuscript is suitable for publication, with major or minor revisions, or unsuitable for publication. No matter the determination, referees are expected to provide commentary on the manuscript. Referees are chosen because they are familiar with the subject area and anxious to see good scholarship published. Their comments can provide helpful guidelines to improving your work. As an author, it may be difficult to accept the criticisms offered on a manuscript you viewed as exceptional.
Revisions: Once the work has been refereed, the journal takes up the recommended revisions and forwards to the author. Most manuscripts that are accepted for publication require some revision.
Images, Figures, and tables: If the manuscript being submitted has figures or tables (images) for publication, the journals management checks for permissions to publish (in the case of images and historical maps) and provide captions and attributions.
