2007 Editorial Calendar
While we strive to publish articles on a variety of quality-related topics, each issue does feature a cover theme. If the topic you would like to write about does not appear on the editorial calendar, please do not hesitate to submit your article. We will use all accepted articles, whether they align with a cover theme or not.
All themes are subject to change. If you are aiming for a specific issue, please submit your article at least six months before the cover date. If you miss this deadline, send the article anyway. Quality Progress may use it in a different issue.
Please note these are the projected topics for feature articles (which are about 2,500 words). Also see our column descriptions (which are limited to 800 words).
