How your submission is reviewed:
Every manuscript submitted to Una Mens is read in full by a human editor. At this stage of the journal's life, that human is the chief editor: no submission is evaluated, declined, or accepted without complete human reading and human judgement. AI systems may assist in review only under the constraints described in our editorial policy, and never as a substitute for the human read.
What happens after you submit
You will receive an email confirmation at the address you provide. Within three days, a human, not an autoresponder, will follow up with your submission ID (format: UM-2026-###). Please include that ID in any correspondence about your manuscript. If you don't hear from us within three days, write to editor@unamensjournal.org; forms occasionally misfire, and we would rather hear from you twice than not at all.
Response Time
We aim to return either a decision or a substantitive status update within 14 days of confirming receipt.
