All, I have a grande size manuscript and I am looking for a publication venue. The text alone clocks in at a little under 10K words (about 11K+ for references, abstract, etc.). The issue is that it is qualitative research based on a new theory with large, interlocking, and reinforcing data sets. So I have to make the case for the theory, method, and report and contextualize the findings. I was looking at IJOC, but they have a 9000 word limit for everything (references, text, abstract, etc.). I have already cut it down from chapter size in my diss. I just do not know if I can make my case if I whack another 2K words. It's applying my theory of dissentworks to an examination of the global Indymedia network. Any suggestions for possible journals would be greatly appreciated. -TED -- Ted M.
