Publications lists and advanced degrees don't tell us much. The quality of your

received your manuscript (it's automatic if you submit online). As far as a
decision regarding acceptance for publication, our response time is generally
between 3 and 6 months after receipt. If you've had no word from us in over 6
months, feel free to contact us by e-mail or visit the office and bop us gently
on the noggin.
PAYMENT: If your work is published, you'll receive two free
copies of the issue in which your work appears.
