This journal employs a blind review process, meaning the reviewers’ and authors’ identities are concealed throughout the review process. In addition to the regular issues, end-of-year award nominations culminate in an annual “best-of” issue and nominations to both the Pushcart and Best of Net awards. Please review the brief guidelines and publishing schedule before submitting.
