Yes, we know that your work is urgent. Yes, your publisher's deadline has already passed, and you already asked for an extension.
Sorry.
You may not push ahead in line. It's just not fair to the others who have waited for their turn.
Perhaps in some cases we will make exceptions. This may occur if there are very few people in line, and if the entire group agrees to make an exception.
However, don't depend on it. The rule is that you wait your turn.
Same problem. Please plan your work in advance. It's not fair to ask Jewish Writing to move everything else aside for your rush jobs.
Sorry. Can't oblige. You'll have to wait for our turn. We'll have to follow a strict and fair schedule. If this becomes a problem, then we have a solution: Only those who have presented serious and worthwhile critiques will have the right to present a manuscript for others to critique. This will improve the level of critiquing and it will encourage people to critique others. No, we didn't implement that rule yet. However, it might be on the way.

Rush Work
Won't some people want their wonderful magnum opus to be critiqued right away?
