This bundle brings together 2 Short Guides to help you navigate publishing your scholarly research. I explain the relationship between the ways publications are used in processes like hiring, promoting, and funding and the primary purpose of publishing as a way of communicating your ideas and findings. Your publishing choices are explained to help you make decisions about what's best in your specific circumstances. There is also a brief section on promoting your work so that other scholars might find it. Peer Review is treated as primarily an editorial process and situated in relation to the value of academic freedom and the effects of it being voluntary labour. The emotional work involved in giving and receiving criticism, especially anonymous, asynchronous criticism, is central to the approach. Guidance is provided for both addressing comments received from reviewers and for providing effective editorial feedback as a peer reviewer. These Short Guides are necessarily general. The information here will also enable the reader to ask better questions of mentors and others with specific institutional or disciplinary expertise.
