Advice to Law Journals: Part 11
11 look favorably on articles that thoroughly explore their topic.
I thought about leaving my entry at that. But I think this deserves a little explanation. Certainly we're all familiar with articles that open up an entirely new area for discussion and, thus, may not be thorough explorations of a topic. But many successful pieces get to the bottom of their topic. A piece that's thoroughly researched and the definitive word on a topic--even a narrow one--has a good chance of being successful.
