Peer Review Process

All essays in S are peer reviewed. Upon receipt of a submission, the editors will make the initial decision whether to send it out for review. Articles are then reviewed double-blind by two members of S's editorial board or by external readers as circumstances dictate.
A covering letter should include the title of the paper, abstract, keywords and all useful contact information—address, phone numbers, email address, etc. Please remove any identifying references to the author(s) prior to submission. Submissions should be send preferably through the online submission process although we will accept submissions by email to editors@lineofbeauty.org

We request reviewers to send their reports within 3 months of the submission.

 

Publication Frequency

S appears once a year.
