Manuscript Editing for Frontiers: A Journal of Women Studies Articles
Frontiers: A Journal of Women Studies has published intersectional, interdisciplinary, and theoretical work in women's studies for fifty years. The University of Nebraska Press publishes it, and its editors are in gender studies at the University of Utah. Alongside research articles it prints poetry, short fiction, activist statements, notes from the field, and artwork, and it encourages submissions “that cross or reexamine boundaries.”
Manuscripts run up to 12,000 words, and that count includes the endnotes, title, abstract, keywords, and sources. Notes are humanities-style endnotes in Chicago style, 18th edition, following the University of Nebraska Press house style sheet. The abstract runs to 250 words, followed by four to ten keywords. Every identifying detail comes out of the file, from the filename to the headers, and you suggest at least five peer reviewers when you submit. Off the Grid Editing removes identifiers from notes and acknowledgments as part of the edit. Submissions go through Editorial Manager, and the journal takes no email submissions.

Manuscript Editing and Proofreading for Frontiers
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 Frontiers: A Journal of Women Studies.
The journal's submission guidelines cover length, the house style sheet, and anonymization. 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 scholarly articles, and academic proofreading is the final pass. For books, see University of Nebraska Press manuscript editing. We also prepare articles for Signs and Feminist Studies.
