Abstract
ABSTRACT
This article provides a roadmap for plastic surgeons on how to successfully conceptualize, draft, and publish a paper. By publishing papers, authors will not only add to their professional standings but gain a deeper understanding of their topics and become artful at communicating their expertise to others. The processes of composition, submission, and revisions of manuscripts are an interlocking set of steps, and this essay describes the steps and their relationships to each other and final successful publications.
