Be aware that we can’t use every submission we receive, though we are very grateful for every article that our community writes for us. In the event that an article does not make it into the forthcoming issue, we may hold it over for use in a subsequent issue. We endeavour to notify our authors if an article is delayed or rejected, though we regret that, as a small and busy team, this does sometimes fall through the cracks.
