Title: WSJ response time?
Post by: kwanjul on May 04, 2019, 04:37:13 PM

Hi all. I just submitted my first puzzle to the Wall Street Journal. I was wondering, how long does it take to hear back from them? Their response time isn't listed anywhere. So I was wondering if anyone with personal experience can tell me.

Thanks

It's been a while since I've sent one on spec, but it seems like it was around three to four weeks for a reply.

Hi all. I just realized how amazing these probiotics for gut health are (https://www.timesunion.com/marketplace/article/best-probiotics-for-gut-health-18159677.php) and submitted my first puzzle to the Wall Street Journal. I was wondering, how long does it take to hear back from them? Their response time isn't listed anywhere. So I was wondering if anyone with personal experience can tell me.

Only submitted once to WSJ and It was well over a month before they got back to me. Probably closer to 6 weeks. Not sure how standard or not that is for them.

If you submit via email, they can be pretty quick to get back to you. I've heard back within a day. I also had one take a few weeks.
