  9. Avoiding the horror • Send the right things • Check requirements • Only ever send to one journal at a time • Send through the required website (e.g. ScholarOne Manuscripts) completing all requirements • At least 2 journal editors have stated that a high proportion of papers from periphery countries are rejected because they do not follow required conventions

  10. Avoiding the horror • Send reminders • No acknowledgement: ask about progress after 3 months • No review: ask about progress after expected time plus one month or after 6 months • No publication: ask about progress after the expected issue is published • Look for alternative e-mails for the editor or for other people involved in publishing

  11. Avoiding the horror • Choosing a professional journal • Q1 journals are likely to be more professional • Look for information about journals • Choose the publisher (Elsevier?) • Set up a website to collect horror stories?

  14. Potential genre research into parodies • Using a parody text to identify genre features • Identify genre features in multiple target texts (or use previous research findings) • Identify genre features in a parody text (same genre) • Compare features identified • Distinguishing genuine examples of a genre from a parody text • Identify features in texts from multiple genres (genre features, content etc.) • Identify features in parody texts from same multiple genres • Compare features identified

  15. Using a parody text to identify genre features • Multidimensional analysis • 6 dimensions • 8 benchmarks registers (conversation, broadcasts, prepared speeches, personal letters, general fiction, press reportage, academic prose, official documents) • Genre analysis • Moves and steps • Swan and Walter (1982) The use of sensory deprivation in foreign language teaching.
