Open call<\/h1>\n<p>We run an open call for contributions for each issue, where we invite the submission of an abstract\/proposal followed later by finished works and articles. Responses to our open call usually require an initial proposal (approximately 400 words) and a short biographical statement (approximately 100 words).<\/p>\n<p>Please check our \u2018<a href=\"https:\/\/hy-phen.space\/journal\/call-for-issue-3-ecologies\/\">call for submissions<\/a>\u2019 page for detailed, up-to-date information on upcoming issues, deadlines and current issue themes.<\/p>\n<p>All submissions (proposals and final contributions) should be sent to: <a href=\"mailto:hyphen.editorial@gmail.com\">hyphen.editorial@gmail.com<\/a>.<a name=\"editorialprocess\"><\/a><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h1>B. Editorial process<\/h1>\n<p>All proposals and abstracts are first considered by the Hyphen editorial team. During this initial part of the process, a submission may be rejected or accepted to undergo our editorial process. Should your submission be accepted, we will let you know which review system your submission is best suited to. Every acceptance is on condition of review by our editors or peer review process (as explained below). We believe this structure allows us to support experimental works which may not fit into a traditional academic framework.<\/p>\n<h2>Editor only review<\/h2>\n<p>We work closely with all accepted contributors, supporting the production of experimental and media-rich work, alongside scholarly or academic writing. All accepted submissions will be assigned an editor, who will offer feedback to help you prepare your article for publication. Freeform writing and creative work is reviewed by our editors only.<\/p>\n<h2>Peer review<\/h2>\n<p>Since Issue 3, Hyphen has implemented a double-blind peer review process for all scholarly works. This process is reserved for scholarly or academic writing which are deemed to benefit from the process. Our peer review process follows the same editing process as our editorial only review, but with the addition of peer review before publication.<\/p>\n<p>During peer review, the reviewer may make a recommendation for the submission. This may be the option to publish, publish with minor adjustments, publish with major adjustments or not to publish at all.<a name=\"finalsubmission\"><\/a><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h1>C.
