    Given that you may be considering writing an article for publication it is helpful to understand the editorial process, that is the role that editors have and the journey of your manuscript from submission to publication. This will also help you to understand the submission process and how you and the editoral team manage your manuscript once you have submitted it. The more you know about this, the more knowledgeable you can be in any interaction with the editor or other staff on the journal. If you have inspirations to become an editor then this chapter may help you decide and inform any future decisions. You may also have been invited to become an associate editor of a journal or a guest editor for a special issue of the journal focusing on your area of expertise.
