Seeing your work published in an international scholarly journal for the first time is one of the most exciting experiences. In this guide, David Gamage (University of Newcastle) and Joseph Zajda (Australian Catholic University, Melbourne Campus), by drawing from their experiences in academic life, combined with the impressive record of publication of their works in numerous scholarly journals and books, present useful tips and encourage academics and graduate students to place greater importance upon the publication of their current research findings in suitable international refereed scholarly journals. The aim of this work is to demystify the process of successful publishing in international journals, by offering strategically significant insights and useful check lists that are likely to increase one’s chances of being published.
