Manuscript Editing for Journal of Contemporary Religion Articles
The Journal of Contemporary Religion is an international peer-reviewed journal on emerging forms of religiosity anywhere in the world. It documents and evaluates their anthropological, sociological, psychological, and philosophical aspects, in innovative movements and mainstream institutions alike. The journal counts spirituality as part of religion and focuses on contemporary issues. Taylor & Francis publishes it, and its editor is at the University of Warwick.
Articles run more than 6,000 and no more than 7,000 words, and research notes run no more than 3,500. Each manuscript states its word count. References follow the Taylor & Francis Chicago author-date style. The non-structured abstract runs 150 to 200 words. Off the Grid Editing brings the article within the word range and checks each in-text citation against the reference list.

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.
