Manuscript Editing for Annals of the American Association of Geographers Journal Articles
Founded in 1911, the Annals of the American Association of Geographers is the flagship journal of the American Association of Geographers. It publishes work that advances geographic knowledge in every part of the discipline, in sections for methods, human geography, nature and society, and physical geography. Taylor & Francis publishes it ten times a year, with one special issue on a single theme.
Articles run no more than 11,000 words, counting the abstract, references, notes, tables, and figure captions. Citations are author-date, following the Taylor & Francis US Chicago guide as directed by the Annals style sheet, and discursive endnotes are discouraged. Three to five keywords, alphabetized and italicized, close the abstract. House style calls for serial commas, double quotation marks, dates such as 25 November 2000, and every acronym spelled out at first use. Author details are left out of the version sent for review. Off the Grid Editing applies the style sheet and trims to the word limit. Submissions go through ScholarOne.

Manuscript Editing and Proofreading for the Annals of the American Association of Geographers
We offer three levels of manuscript editing depending on what your manuscript needs. Each is described below so you can choose the service that fits where your draft is right now.
Grammar and usage, awkward phrasing, repetition, and passive voice corrected, then clarity, concision, sentence structure, transitions, and tone, with your style manual applied throughout and a final proofread. For authors whose argument and structure are settled.
Clarity, emphasis, and paragraph structure: topic sentences, transitions, and sentences reordered within a paragraph, with every fact and claim kept as you wrote it. Includes copy editing and a final proofread.
Spelling, punctuation, typos, capitalization, grammar, and usage corrected with minimal wording changes, for manuscripts that have been edited and need a last check before submission to Annals of the American Association of Geographers.
The AAG's Annals style sheet covers length, citations, and house style. If you have reviewer comments from an earlier submission, send them with your manuscript and we will address each one. If you have questions about which service is right for your manuscript, contact us directly. We respond to every inquiry the same day during business hours.
Our journal article and essay editing page explains how we edit social science articles, and academic proofreading is the final pass.
