1.5 How do I submit to the RRL? (misc.writing Recommended Reading List)
Please mail submissions directly to me at <jeffress@xmission.com>.
Reviews should be concise and state the specific benefits and
failings of the work. In your submission include all the
bibliographic information listed in section 1.2. Especially
important are the physical details of the book. I can look up most
bibliographic details from the Library of Congress database, but I
can't tell physical size, the price, or the number of pages.
Indicate the category where you feel the entry belongs -- you've
read the work so you know where it fits best. Please indicate if
you do not want your name or e-mail address posted with your
review.
Feel free to submit reviews of works that already appear in the
RRL, especially if you have a dissenting opinion. Where additional
reviews add new material or information about an entry, I will
include the new entry.
Some entries have a one-line review that says almost nothing
useful: "One of the best books in the genre. A really good read."
Please send me new, expanded reviews for these entries.
Sometimes I receive lengthy reviews. In this case I silently
condense the review and give the author full credit for the entry.
I will also make small editorial changes to keep the style of the
entries consistent.
