My first paper

So many questions!

  • When is my paper ready?
  • Where should I send my paper?
    • IF or fit
    • reputation
    • read 'aims & scope'
    • look at your own references
    • when to (not) aim high
    • Open Access journals
  • Which submission type?
    • and what is a research note?

So many questions!

  • How to format my paper?
    • tables & figures
    • literature
    • .doc, TEX or PDF? And the template?
  • How to structure the paper?
    • imitation is the sincerest form of flattery

    • that mediocrity can pay to greatness

  • What about the letter?
    • no harm
    • why journal's audience should care?

So many questions!

  • How to deal with a (desk) rejection
    • no reason to contest
    • read the motivation carefully
    • it is not the end of the paper or your career
    • see slides from our first meeting
  • Let's look at some examples

Thank you
