📢 You are warmly welcomed to the next Research Process Seminar — hosted by The Media School at Bournemouth University, and open to all.
🎓 Publishing in Journals: Managing the Perils, Pitfalls, and ‘Reviewer 2’
In this seminar, we’ll demystify the journal publication process and offer practical guidance for researchers at all career stages. Drawing on extensive experience as an author and editor, Professor Scott Wright will discuss how to:
✅ Select the right outlet for your work
✅ Craft an effective submission strategy
✅ Navigate the often daunting peer-review process
We’ll also explore how to interpret and respond to reviewers’ comments, communicate effectively with editors, and turn rejections into future successes. With a candid look at the perils and pitfalls of academic publishing, this session aims to equip participants with realistic strategies, insider tips, and renewed confidence for getting their research into print.
🗓 18 November, 2–3pm (UK time)
