The overall goal of the editors of the Journal of Holistic Nursing was to enhance the link between the professional literature and holistic nursing practice. To accomplish this goal, strategies were developed/refined that would increase the journal's acceptance into the clinical/academic marketplace. The purpose of this article is to produce a concise document that describes the publication process. The following topics are addressed: (a) the rationale for writing, (b) the publication requirements, (c) selecting a journal, (d) the peer review/evaluation process, and (e) the essential components of an article. The purpose of this editorial effort was to assist manuscript writers to become published authors. Hopefully, the activities of the editors and the contents of this article will facilitate the efforts of many aspiring authors.
