Articles for inclusion on the Lion & Pen home page
must be written on the topic of fountain pens or related items.
The submissions of Articles must be entirely the original
work of the author and include, where necessary, references
to source materials. Any piece that uses previously published
work by another pen collector, historian, reviewer or researcher
without proper citation cannot be accepted.
Any submission that contains copyrighted work that is not
properly cited may not appear as an article nor may any work
appear as an article that contains the work of any person
or persons otherwise banned from posting at Lion & Pen.
Administrators will review the submission and determine
whether to publish it as an Article. We will then notify
the author
that the piece has been accepted as is, provisionally accepted
upon author's completion of suggested revisions, or rejected
outright. Should the author question the requested revisions
we are happy to negotiate any differences but the Administrators
reserve the final decision to publish or not. Rejection
does not prevent the member from posting the piece as a message
in an appropriate forum. Once a submission has been accepted,
the Administrators will conduct a final edit for length,
clarity,
grammar, spelling and style. The Administrators will submit
this final edited version of the submission to the author
for approval. If the author accepts this final version, it
will be posted as an Article on the Lion & Pen home page.
If not, we will follow the procedures as for revisions as
outlined above. Photographs appearing in articles should
not be greater than 72 dpi and should be sent in the size
the
author wishes them to appear. The final artistic layout of
text and graphics for the article is done by the Administrators.
In all cases, the decision of the Administrators is final.
We look forward to your submissions. We know that there are
many of you who have important information to share in your
heads and in your hearts. Please submit those for Articles
on the home page.
