众所周知，期刊投稿不是一朝一夕能够解决的，从开始投稿的那天起，就注定了这将是一场旷日持久的战争，既要做好战前准备，在漫长投稿过程中，也要做足准备。

没有投稿经验的小白，怎么把文章投好呢？那就要从源头抓起，夯实基础，一起苦练期刊投稿“娃娃功”。

下面就为大家分享一下，在投稿的过程中，有哪些基本功，是我们需要知道的？

超出范围的千万别投，要不就是浪费时间；另外，每个杂志都有他们的具体格式要求，一定要按照他们的要求把论文写好，免得浪费时间。

特别是摘要和结论不能重复，发现有很多论文这两部分没有差别。个人认为，摘要是引人入胜的"药引子"，要留悬念；而结论是你论文得出的有证据的东西，要简单明了。尽量避免数据的简单堆积。论文的重点应该在观点上，保证一篇论文一个新观点，已经足够了。

投稿时，一定要找和你做研究内容相近领域的专家作评阅人，最好是国外的，不是说国内的不好，但就怕有人和你(或你老板)有过节，而且国内的很多所谓专家水平一般，且小心眼。

要简单介绍你的工作的创新性，这样便于论文的快速发表，当然也应该客气几句，让编辑感到心里舒服，主要是夸杂志好之类的话；有人写coverletter，就是写上题目、然后说很荣幸投稿之类地话，也有人干脆把摘要全写上，这样个人认为不好，一定用两到三句话说明你论文“新”在哪，这个非常重要。

前些时候，看到论坛上很多人说不能写信催编辑，个人认为没关系，必要催信能够让人重视你的论文，一定要让人感到，你的论文在这发不了，好多地方在等着发呢(但很多牛杂志，可不吃这套哟，人家不缺稿，嘿嘿)。当然写信的时候要客气，说一些快速发表对于学术讨论和促进工作等方面的重要性之类的话。

特别是不投中文杂志英文版，好不容易憋了篇英文，还投到低水平的杂志，很不甘心；最重要的是国内杂志要钱，而国外很多不要。自从国内某杂志告诉我他们之所以收我很高的版面费是为了他们的生存时，我发誓包括以后我的学生就不再投中文杂志了

是人都知道我们英语没英国和美国人地道，但只要能表达清楚你要表达的意思就好了。而且等审稿人提出来时，一定要从头到尾改一遍。你会发现，这样多次发论文后，你的英语写作水平在一天天提高。拿两年前的论文过来，自己都感觉写得很烂，哈哈~

按照审稿人的建议好好改你的论文，只要坚持投稿，就一定能够被接收的，如果论文被某杂志拒稿，但不提倡降低杂志质量再投（应该根据审稿人意见修改后找合适的杂志）；有人认为低影响因子的杂志一定中的几率高，我也这么认为，但一般低影响因子的杂志论文出稿比较慢！

相信很多作者都遇到过这种情况，向SCI期刊投稿很长时间，没有收到期刊审稿意见（一般在两月以上，两月以内很正常，具体可见SCI审稿流程：http://news.bioon.com/article/6678749.html），但因晋升职称、毕业等原因急于发表时，该怎么办呢？写信催？我们往往担心是否太冒失了，但时间紧急又不得不催时，该用怎样的语言去催期刊呢？

我个人觉得：以正当的理由，委婉地向主编催稿，对于加快审稿速度，还是可行的。尽量客气一点，避免被无良杂志退稿。

Dear Prof. Dr. Editor ***

I submitted our latest work to your journal *** last November. I want to know the review process. If there are some reponses from the reviewers. Would you please tell me the results so that I can deal with it as early as possible? Please understand me that fast publication of our work is important for me.

I appreciate your contribution to the publication of the high quality papers.

Kind thanks to you for your care.

Best Regards

Yours sincerely

投稿后审稿人提出修改，需要补充数据、理论等一堆内容，短时间不能修定，只好撤稿，撤稿也需要理由。

Dear Editor,

Thank you very much for your kind remind and helps. However, we are sorry that we have to withdraw the submission of our paper (Manuscript Number,MN:…) . The reason is that, first, if we revise the paper according to the reviewers' comments point by point, we will pay much time to make tests and then plot the data in the revised paper, second, we feel that we have not yet studied our work completely and have some difficulties to answer some questions of the reviewers' comments and add their answers or solutions in the revised paper quickly. Of course, our work in this paper is complex and difficult because it is related with the magnetism, mechanics, electrostatics, electrics and some couplings among them. I am very sorry that we had to make this decision and continue our investigation of this work further. I appreciate the reviewers very much for their careful work and helpful suggestions. Thank you again.

Kind Regards,

Your name
