Adelaide9216 Posted January 2, 2020 Share Posted January 2, 2020 Okay, well...in September, I have submitted a paper to an academic journal as a first-author. Not the most prestigious journal, but a good journal for someone who had just finished her master's degree. The person of the journal said they would get back to me with a decision (accepted, rejected, etc.) on December 16th. I have never heard back from them. Should I email them? Is there a chance that they may have forgotten about me? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PokePsych Posted January 2, 2020 Share Posted January 2, 2020 email - and probably some reviewer was late or something. It's fine to inquiry particularly if they have given you a time. Adelaide9216 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adelaide9216 Posted January 10, 2020 Author Share Posted January 10, 2020 They responded back. They apologized for the delay, but will review my paper by April now ? Wow it's quite long. I have to get used to this. Suraj_S 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wow it's quite long. I have to get used to this. It takes a very long time to get something published. This is why you should start as early as possible. If you can submit a second (different) paper somewhere else, you should do that, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adelaide9216 Posted July 8, 2021 Author Share Posted July 8, 2021 This paper did not get accepted. I took it back and managed to produce an entire new draft that I'm prouder of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
