Hi Ed, The rejection says to re-submit with a short summary, but I did include a short summary in the appropriate section, which was under the extra note to editor that I added as way of explanation.

Thanks everyone, I've had a couple more articles accepted, although one I deleted and resubmitted because I hadn't cited a source to my satisfaction. I'm assuming it will go back through okay.

Hi guys,

I left it alone and submitted the article and it was accepted! I guess I understand semicolons.

Hi all! I'm new here and am completely blissed out this morning because my first article was accepted right out of the starting gate! I'd been stressing over hyphenated phrasal adjectives vs. nouns and I just said, "forget it, I'm going for it!" and I'm so glad I did. I was completely prep...

Hi everyone, I'm new so I didn't think this belonged in the authors section. I'm looking for confirmation that my semi-colon use is not completely hopeless. If you wouldn't mind taking a look and letting me know what you think, I'd appreciate it. Here's a section of article I'm currently working on:...
