SEXUAL SPORTS RHETORIC format:

Without using “page break,” as various computers can’t deal with it, please include the following in your electronic copy:

1. Title page, including your name, affiliation(s), and contact data (postal address, phone/fax, email). We need this because, once the book comes, out the publisher will send you a complimentary copy. Your abstract should also appear here, no longer needing keywords.

2. Biography page: something brief, like this:
Cathy Cooper (Ph.D., UCLA), who teaches in the Sociology Department at Ohio State, is the author of Human Trafficking Issues (Routledge, 2006), and is co-chair of the Gender Division of the Popular Culture Association. She is currently doing fieldwork in Peru.

3. The chapter itself, 20 pages maximum, with these specifications: nothing should be in bold or capital letters, but EVERYTHING should be double-spaced. Center key sections, not underlined, but put sub-sections of them to the left, underlined. Indent each paragraph five spaces, but have NO spaces between paragraphs. Running heads are not necessary, but number all pages beginning with the first page. Just so we are all uniform, use Times New Roman font size #12, and limit endnotes (not footnotes) to one or 2, at the end. For the Bibliography, try to keep this style sample:

Jones, S. (2007). Community health issues, in CyberTimes. B. P.
Black, Ed., pp. 110-135. London: Sage.
Smith, R. (2001). Gendered and sport. New York: Praeger.
Taylor, M.A. and Tooty, B. (2007). Refugee trials. South Africa Times,
10 (Winter): 1-3.

Submission size should be about 20 pages. We are limited to 125,000 words in all, which means that if you don’t cut the publisher will—or, delete your submission completely. Because we have so many chapters, that means no more than 5,000 words, all-inclusive.

Time-wise, it seems that most of you will be able to submit your chapters, abstracts, and updated bios by November, 2008.

Here’s to teamwork!
