All article submissions should be approximately 3,000 to 9,000 words in length including footnotes, 12-pt font, Times New Roman, double-spaced, and should follow The Chicago Manual of Style (15th Edition). All submissions should also include an abstract of the manuscript (under 150 words).

All submissions will be reviewed by an appropriate blind-peer group of readers. Submissions should include an electronic email with a document attachment in MS Word. Hard copy submissions will not be returned.

All authors of accepted manuscripts will be notified promptly and will receive a complimentary copy of the Journalgratis. We do reserve the right to edit manuscripts for usage and style. Accepted manuscripts are also subject to editorial modifications with consultation and permission of the author. The review and selection process generally requires a minimum of three months, and therefore submission of manuscripts should be received three to four months prior to either the fall or spring issue of the Journal. For all article submissions, please submit inquires to Andrew Jacobs, ajacobs@faulkner.edu.
