Please allow three to four months for a decision on publication.
Format: Manuscripts should be 15-25 pages in length, double-spaced, and should
conform to the latest MLA-style guidelines. Submission of a manuscript indicates that
the article is not being considered nor has been published elsewhere. The print version
of the journal publishes articles in English; the electronic version publishes articles
in any language.
Abstract: Three copies of an informative and comprehensive abstract of 50 to
100 words must accompany the manuscript when it is first submitted.
Documentation: Writers are responsible for checking the accuracy of all
references and for ensuring that complete information is provided in the Works

to obtain written permission from the copyright holder to reproduce all visual
or other materials accompanying the manuscript.
Review Process: All articles submitted for consideration, whether for the print or Web-based
version of the Rocky Mountain Review, go through a scholarly review process.
Details on this review process and a list of the
faculty serving on the Editorial Board may be found
on this site. Manuscripts will not be returned to authors.
Acceptance and Publication: Once an article is accepted for publication,
the author submits the following to the Editors by e-mail to
davissj@wsu.edu:
- a clean, fully revised, print copy of the article with the abstract;
- a biographical note of about 50 words;
The article is then copy-edited and prepared for publication. The print journal
is published semi-annually in November and April and mailed to those who have
opted to pay a supplemental print mailing fee.
The deadlines for submitting
articles to be published in the fall or spring issue are August 31st and
December 31st respectively.
The online version of the Rocky Mountain Review publishes articles at the
point of final edit, regardless of the print schedule. Abstracts of on-line articles
written in a language other than English appear in the next print edition of the journal
for bibliographical purposes.
Following publication in the Rocky Mountain Review,
authors will receive three copies of the journal issue featuring their article.
