1. Originals must be unpublished and not approved for publication by any other entity.

2. Editing rights are owned by the Escritoras y Escritura Research Group and your permission is required for any reproduction. In any case, it will be necessary to cite the source in any partial or total reproduction.

3. Articles that are not written in accordance with the submission guidelines listed below will not be accepted.

4. The images or photographs included in the text must be original or the authors must be in possession of the reproduction rights. For this, a declaration by the author that he / she has an explicit authorization or a public license for the use of said images will be attached. Otherwise they cannot be included in the final layout.

PRESENTATION RULES

Important: Along with the manuscript, in the same submission of the article, the signed document of the Declaration of authorship, good practices and transfer of rights must be presented. This template, completed and signed by the author of the manuscript, must be attached in step "3. Finish", as "Added file". The form can be signed manually, using Adobe Acrobat or other similar software, or digitally with a digital certificate from the FNMT.

All articles will go through the Turnitin anti-plagiarism tool, to guarantee their originality.

Articles, therefore, must be original and unpublished and must conform to the template format that can be downloaded at the following link: ARTICLE TEMPLATE

In any case, the rules to take into account (already included in the template) are specified below:

Job submission

Only files created with the MS WORD program will be accepted, all of them in Windows version. The images, photographs or reproductions inserted in the text will also be attached, separately, in JPG or JPEG format, with a resolution of 300 px, to ensure the quality of the final layout of the text.

The length of the academic articles will not be less than 5,000 words and no more than 15,000 words, including the abstract and keywords (in two languages), footnotes and bibliographic references. The reviews, on the other hand, will not exceed 3,000 words.

It is also recommended that the authors distribute the contents of their works in three different parts: introduction, development and conclusion. The style of the text must be formal and strictly comply with the orthographic standards of the Royal Spanish Academy.

First page format

The title should appear on the first page in the language in which the article is written (capital letters, Times New Roman 12, bold and centered) and underneath the title in English (capital letters, Times New Roman 12, bold, italic and centered) . All data relating to the identity of the author / author will be included by the editor after anonymous evaluation.

Each article will be accompanied by a summary in the language in which it is written and another in English (abstract), both of no more than 200 words, together with four key words in both languages.

Format body text

Page layout: margins (top and bottom 2.5; left and right 3), paper: A-4 (width 21, height 29.7), layout (header 1.25, footer 1.25), font (Times New Roman, 12, 1.5 spacing and no leading or trailing spacing between paragraphs).

The initial line of each paragraph will present a normal indentation of 0.5cm - the indentation must be done with the specific option of the word processor, in no case will the space bar or the tab key be used for this purpose-. The body of text will be justified (left and right aligned).

When referring to a sentence period, the footnote calls will follow the punctuation mark. However, when they refer to a single word, they will go along with it. They should be entered at the foot of the page and not at the end of the document (Times New Roman, 9, single line spacing, no indentation).

Titles within the text:

1. Small caps, Times New Roman 12, bold, left alignment and a white line after

1.1. Normal, Times New Roman 12, bold, left alignment and no space after.

1.1.1. Italic, Times New Roman 12, left alignment and no space after.

Citations format

Citations and bibliographic references must comply with the guidelines established by the seventh edition of the APA Publications Manual (2019). However, the full names of the authors must be included in the bibliographic references, in order to comply with the Gender Policy.

Short textual citations (up to four lines in length) will be enclosed in quotation marks (with English quotation marks: “”) in the body of the text. In the event that a citation contains another citation, the quotation marks of the inner citation will be angled ("").

Long quotes (more than four lines in length) will be indented, single space, without quotation marks, with a font size of 11 points and single spacing.

Bibliographic citations, both in the body of the text and in the footnotes, will follow the following model: (Author's last name, year, p. XX). Example: (Bachtin, 1990, p. 45)

When several works by an author published in the same year are cited, they will be distinguished by including lowercase letters in alphabetical order after the date (Bachtin, 1994a; Bachtin, 1994b).

Do not use other types of references, such as cit., Op. cit., id., ibidem ...

Bibliographic references

At the end of the article, the complete bibliographic References must appear in alphabetical order (Times New Roman 12, 1.5 spacing, 0.5 French indentation and unnumbered). In the bibliographic references, the titles cited in the work will be collected in accordance with the criteria of the 7th edition of the APA standards.

As mentioned above, the only difference from what is proposed by the APA standards must be reflected in the references to the authors, since the full name must be included and not only the initial.
