Unless a contributor is specifically invited, all contributions to CT&T undergo external blind peer-review as well as internal editorial review.

- Paragraphs are indented, i.e. use tab, not spacebar, to begin each paragraph.
- Punctuation that follows an italicized or underlined word should also be italicized and/or underlined.
- Use English (not American) spelling.
- Italicise foreign words and phrases with the translation in parentheses, i.e., Je sais bien mais quand même… (I know very well, but nevertheless).
- Indicate special characters and other foreign symbols/letters (i.e., ‘Ž’), etc. in bold, and make a list of special characters at the end of your chapter.
- Em-dashes should be typed as two hyphens with no space on either side.
- Use double quotation marks for quotes not longer than four lines, single quotation marks for quotes within quotes.
- Quotations that are longer than four lines are indented with no double quotation marks necessary.
