Submission Guide for Articles to Australasian Drama Studies
- Contributions up to 6000 words (including endnotes) are acceptable.
- All articles are peer-reviewed anonymously; consequently the author's name must not appear on the copy submitted. The editors will contact the author with any suggested alterations and comments after peer assessments have been made. This process can take up to 2 months.
- If accepted for publication, a disc or email copy is required and a five-line biography of the author.
- Titles should reflect as closely as possible the topic of your article. In your title, please try to include the appropriate key words that a researcher might use to find your article in a database.
- Contributors should follow the MLA style for citations but using endnotes. For example, after a quote or reference is made in the text, an endnote number is cited. In the list of NOTES at the end of the article the citation should then conform to the following examples:
