问题: 投稿至杂志,两周后说未找到编辑,再等还能找到吗?

问题描述
收到以下回复,接下来该怎么办呢?As two weeks have now passed since your manuscript's submission, we would like you to be informed that, unfortunately, due to the high volume of current submissions, none of the Associate Editors on our Editorial Board have been able to take this assignment so far. While it is possible that an Editor becomes available to handle this submission later on, we would like you to be aware that this may take some weeks. We regret that we have not been able to find a handling editor for your manuscript despite invitations to our entire editorial board. We are still trying to contact possible handling editors and shall shortly discuss your submission with the relevant Chief Editors and Editorial teams.

邮件内容大意:

两周前您提交了稿件,遗憾的是,因为有大量待处理稿件,编辑部尚未找到副编辑来处理您的稿件。虽然我们有可能在之后为您分配编辑,但有可能需要数周。虽然我们已经向全体编辑发出了邀请,但尚未收到回复。我们将继续为您寻找编辑,并会和主编已经整个编辑团队讨论你的稿件提交。

的确,论文的发表过程非常缓慢,延迟也是正常的。当期刊需要处理大量稿件时,情况可能会更糟。他们把延误的原因告诉了你,这是期刊方面的一个友好表示。但是,因为已经过去了好几个星期了,状态还是没有变化,你应该马上给期刊写信。询问当前状态是什么,以及分配编辑需要多长时间。如果他们仍然不确定,你可以考虑撤回你的论文,提交给其他期刊,以避免浪费更多时间。
