How to Publish in Scholarly Journals

Publishing is much harder than I probably had anticipated it to be. Research, although exciting to be part of a community that adds to the discussion and hopefully the knowledge base, seems to be much more political and filled with unwritten rules than I had previously thought. On top of that, the research must be very solid which would lead back to having a quality question and design.

-Are there ways to develop a study that really can contribute without replicating prior studies that answer similar questions? I would suppose that this is where a quality lit review would come into play.
- Would even be possible for me to publish when I am here? The process seems so lengthy.
