Professor Keith Dowdingの "Getting Published in Academic Journals: Advice to Doctoral Students and Young Academics: Part Two," European Political Science, Vol. 2, No. 3, 2003によると、こういうことだそうです。
Ideally, at any point in time you will have several articles accepted for publication, several out for review, a couple waiting for revision on revise-and-resubmit or rejection, plus those you are working on for conferences, seminars and to send out for the first time.This means you always have several pieces of work on the go at the same time. (p. 4)
というわけで、皆さん（including me)、頑張りましょう！
