Two colleagues of mine were talking about the articles they had sent individually for publishing. Both were on the same topic. Only one of them was selected. The younger colleague, the one whose article was not selected, remarked that she had done lot of reading and research to write the article. She wondered why her article was not chosen. The elder colleague, whose article was preferred, was comforting her when another colleague overheard the conversation and said, ‘Such articles require experience and not reading or research. That I think is both reflected in the content and the choice.’
There is a lot of wisdom in that statement.
