Abstract
The advent and success of a new Journal seems to be dependent on its originality and a readership that needs and appreciates the content. It still is surprising to me personally that the Journal of Smoking Cessation (JoSC) has succeeded to such a degree since its inception 10 years ago. When I thought about a Journal for our group of the Australian Association of Smoking Cessation Professionals (AASCP), the publishers at Australian Academic Press asked whether there surely was such a journal already and that another might be redundant. When I assured them that there was no such Journal, we embarked upon an enterprise which now has great international interest and credibility. With a small startup grant from the Australian Government I was able to encourage and recruit old friends and colleagues from around the world who were all kind enough to give their names in good faith to an Editorial Board that remains the same today. Their good names and reputations greatly enhanced the credibility of the Journal and I cannot thank them enough for their faith in the Journal and its future. In particular thanks go to Michelle DiGiacomo for volunteering and continuing to volunteer an inordinate amount of time and energy supporting this endeavour.
