Who Owns What Publications?
Aug 31, 2003 -
© Donna L. Quesinberry
Without intention to defame potentially "famous or infamous" Editors in the field, this article only strives to present the fact that you may be submitting your written work to an essence of stylus that is larger than anticipated. It could be well worth it to learn "who owns and operates" the publications where your work is going to be published.
This knowledge may assist you, not only with successful submission results, but by also knowing your editorial audience and may assist you in your decision-making processes of where to submit your work.
Due to the exhaustive length of these listings, we will present and review them alphabetically. We are starting with the letter "A," coutesy of Aaron Moore, Ph.D.
