Esteemed Friends,

Greetings from GIEWEC’s Office!

Glad to inform you that 2.2 (September 2012) issue of Writers Editors Critics (WEC) is published. We can be proud of this issue as it fulfills all the criteria of an international refereed journal. It is truly international as it contains articles of writers from different nationalities. As you are well aware, the articles of the journal are refereed by a panel of referees. As it is a literature journal, the documentation style used is the latest MLA style—the one internationally prescribed for languages and literatures. And finally this journal, along with my International Journal on Multicultural Literature (IJML), is chosen by EBSCO Host Publishing, USA, who makes the articles available online to thousands of libraries and scholars across the world.
