Success

'We shall be publishing...'

[...] Luckily, you know a sub-editor at the Bat Review. It isn't so prestigious, but your colleague is happy enough when they accept the article. You've made a friend and learned some tradable academic gossip. A good day's work.


Failure

'We are sorry to say...'

One by one, the journals reject the article. Even the lowly Bat Review won't take the d----d thing. Is this because of your involvement? Will the same happen to your work?
