Publication questions

Can you guarantee acceptance?
No, and nobody honestly can. Acceptance is the journal's decision. What we can do is make sure your manuscript meets the journal's technical and language standards so it is judged on the research.
Who is the author of the paper?
You and your co-authors. The research, the findings and the argument are yours. Many journals ask authors to acknowledge language editing, and we're happy to be named in your acknowledgements.
My paper was rejected. Can you help?
Yes. A rejection with reviewer comments is a useful starting point. We'll help you plan the revisions, tighten the manuscript and choose a better-fitting journal if needed.
