Apologies for cross posting, please disseminate widely. 

As part of the MeCCSA-Postgraduate Network's remit to provide training and networking opportunities for new researchers, Networking Knowledge: Journal of the MeCCSA-PGN - which publishes work exclusively from those early in their academic careers - would like to welcome proposals from postgraduate and early career researchers to guest edit special issues based in the field of media, cultural, and communication studies.

As a guest editor you work in collaboration with the journal editor, who will provide support and guidance through the process of putting an issue together. This will include drafting and disseminating a call for papers, working with the vast pool of peer reviewers to select the best quality content for the issue, writing an introduction, and preparing documents for publication in adherence with the house style. 

Proposals on any subject relevant to the interests of MeCCSA are welcomed. Earlier this year saw the success of our first guest edited issue "Girlhood in Popular Culture", with issues concerning "American Telefantasy", and "The Biographical Narrative" forthcoming.

Please submit proposals of no more than 300 words to Tom Phillips ([log in to unmask]) by 25 June 2012. Please feel free to contact Tom with any queries or requests for further information.
