Many people are so interested to write, but
they have a problem in publishing. Publishers generally accept papers from
established people. If a director of a Big company writes something,
that is published immediately without any censure. But when a student writes,
the publishers hesitate to publish. This is the scenario.
With the popularity of e-journals, the publication has
become cheap, the circulation becomes wider, everyting good. But
the poor writer still suffers. Most journals are so highly specialized that
either you cannot write for them, or they will not accept from you.
Many writers loose interest in writing. They have to give up this beautiful hobby.
This journal is a self managed journal for self publishers. A free journal,
free not in the sense that the author will not pay or will not be paid any money,
but free in the sense that the authors will decide about their publications.
The authors will write their
articles (as Author)- they will edit their articles (as Editor)- will take a decision
whether to publish or not (as Publisher). They can remove their
own articles if they don't wish to publish further. The true freedom
that was possible only in imagination is now materialized in a web platform.
The journalsite is truely the authors' paradise.
This engine of the journal allows instant publication. No need to send to
the editor. No waiting for approval. No waiting for next month's issue. No fear of
rejection. A total end of all these hastles. Only publication and direct
publication. That's it.
I hope this will help authors of all fields and all categories,
young and old, professional and novice.
Professionals can take this scope of immediate publication, article mining,
internet presence and so on. The novice gets access to a publication platform,
world wide audiance, an encouragement to write more and so on. As their publication
hastle is zeroed they get more time to concentrate on authoring
better products.
This is a voluntary effort without any profit intention. This site was
started in 2005. While paying for the domain (journalsite.com), the hosting
server and meeting other expenditures were burdening, I did not get adequate response
from the author community. Later I hosted it as a subdomain under trizsite.com,
but then it had less visibility and so less interaction.
Now it's back again with a proper domain name, independent hosting server and I hope it will
not be discontinued again. The web hosting scenario is also changing with availability
of free domain names and free hosting servers thus providing alternative hosting
options to reduce the financial burdens.
The site is meant for the authors. I made a survey of the difficulties
faced by the authors and learnt that most authors or potential authors
stop writing because of (i) lack of financial benefits and (ii) lack of scope of
publication. While the first problem still remains, the Journalsite intends to
eliminate or reduce the second main problem - i.e., the problem of publication.
The journalsite provides an open platform embracing every level of authors to show the flow of their pen.
If the authors are benefited through this platform I will feel that my goal
is achieved. Happy writing...
