A Note from the Editor

Abstract

The present issue of the Ghana Journal of Linguistics, the eighth, is the last that I shall oversee as Editor-in-Chief. There have been ups and downs, and times when it was doubtful whether the journal could survive, but overall it has been a rewarding and interesting experience. It did survive, and I would like to take the opportunity to thank the people who made it possible: first of all the Linguistics Association of Ghana, who created it, the authors, without whose work there could be no journal, the editorial committee, the editorial board, and especially the many reviewers who gave so freely of their time and expertise to make the journal one of which we can be proud.
Upcoming volumes will include at least two special issues, guest edited by Prof. Paul Kerswill and Prof. Maria Koptjevskaja Tamm. Other issues will be in the capable hands of the incoming Editor-in-Chief and his Editorial Committee. With the cooperation of the wonderful team at African Journals On-line, our hosts, I am sure there are many more years of successful publication ahead for the Ghana Journal of Linguistics.
