After another month I received my rejection letter in the mail. The letter said that the reader, after nearly five months (a single reader??) had said only "A worthy essay in need of refinement." Without commenting on the aptness of the comment, but something more might be expected after 5 months.theswainhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05919025515524894537noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3571309.post-1140726118760569452006-02-23T15:21:00.000-05:002006-02-23T15:21:00.000-05:00_The Heroic Age_ is good too, I try to keep editor..._The Heroic Age_ is good too, I try to keep editors and readers hopping to a 60 day response time; regrettably appearance has been rather delayed, so the time between acceptance and publication is longer than I wish, but I'm working on narrowing that down.theswainhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05919025515524894537noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3571309.post-1139144098651388892006-02-05T07:54:00.000-05:002006-02-05T07:54:00.000-05:00Hello Prof. Drout: I would really like to see a bl...Hello Prof. Drout: I would really like to see a blog entry with your thoughts on the Danish cartoon controversy that has made news around the world (I think the US media were a bit slow to pick up on it, but they must have by now!)<BR/>Here's a chronology of the whole affair with many links to more info: http://www.signandsight.com/features/590.html<BR/><BR/>Cheers<BR/>TrionaTriona Troghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00051840900691501629noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3571309.post-1139089458427844312006-02-04T16:44:00.000-05:002006-02-04T16:44:00.000-05:00Michael, I think it's an excellent idea to use a p...Michael, I think it's an excellent idea to use a public forum like this to let people know which journals are prompt, professional, and responsive. Thanks for posting this. I can report that JEGP, Mittellateinisches Jahrbuch, and RES have also been easy to work with; with JEGP, the time to publication can be longish, but the editors respond quickly, provide excellent feedback, and let you know when you're in the queue.<BR/><BR/>Any thoughts of adding wall of fame/wall of shame list of journals as a permanent feature of the blog?Tirunculahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16788199657297216288noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3571309.post-1138995287820332022006-02-03T14:34:00.000-05:002006-02-03T14:34:00.000-05:00Cool!!!

Your experience encourages me greatly for my future contacts with <I>MP</I>. And, I agree with Dr Virago--<I>Exemplaria</I> is equally efficient. Both journals make excellent use of technology.Scott Kleinmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09642536762466019138noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3571309.post-1138950707716710832006-02-03T02:11:00.000-05:002006-02-03T02:11:00.000-05:00Michael, I haven't commented here before, but I've...Michael, I haven't commented here before, but I've been reading you for awhile. Hello! Anyway, I just wanted to say that Exemplaria is equally efficient. And also -- yay! :)Dr. Viragohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03960384082670286328noreply@blogger.com
