Abstract
Language teachers and applied linguists in universities across the world are under increasing pressure to publish in prestigious international journals. This article draws on very extensive experience as author, reviewer and editor to provide practical advice to academics on how to maximise their chances of getting published in an international journal. It details how a thesis differs from a journal article, how to select target journals, and how to avoid junk journals. It explains the whole process of submission and peer review. It discusses the challenges of writing in academic English. A section on research ethics defines plagiarism, and describes why and how authors must ensure that their submissions contain no plagiarised material.
