Writing up
How can you be sure the journal you are considering is the right journal for your research? There are many journals and publishers to choose from to submit your work and many influences on an authors’ choice. Researchers frequently get invitations to submit to special editions and certain journals. It is always a good idea to read the Ts and Cs of any special edition and to check journal credentials, especially if they are new to you and especially if you are the sole author. Think. Check. Submit. provide checklists to help you.
