Submissions

Author Guidelines

All submissions to the Journal of Personal Feminist Rhetoric should be made using the online submission form.

Please ensure that you consider the following guidelines when preparing your manuscript. Failure to do so may delay the processing of your submission.

Formatting

Traditional text manuscripts should be submitted as Microsoft Word documents. Most article-length manuscripts are between 6,000 and 8,000 words.

Please include a running head that includes a shortened version of your title, but does not include your name. Please include an abstract and keywords.

Follow current MLA format (8th edition) for citations. For archival materials, please use the following citation style:

Author last name, first name. Title or description of material. Date. MS or TS [manuscript or typescript]. Name of Collection. Box number, folder number. Name of repository, affiliated university, city.

We also welcome multimedia submissions and digital scholarship. Please contact the Editors at jpfreditorial@gmail.com if you have questions about sending these types of submissions.

Peer Review Process

Manuscripts should not be previously published or under consideration elsewhere. Manuscripts should bear no identifying information (internal or external) about the author(s).

Manuscripts that are deemed appropriate will be submitted for blind review by two external readers, who will be asked to complete reviews within four to six weeks of receiving them. Authors then will receive those reviews, along with a letter from the editors about the status of their manuscript. The average timeline from submission to response has been six to eight weeks.
