A look behind the curtain at how editors review and select submissions: things they look for in a strong submission, things that put them off, how to format and present your work, and how to appear professional throughout the process. We’ll go over authors’ tools for tracking and timing submissions, look at standard formatting, and review the dos and don’ts of cover letters.
