so 1 guy has helped me get 2 of my stories published but 2 have been rejected 5 times each the editing nazi's are way too strict and looks like i need somebody to edit for me this is ridiculous i write from memory and I'm not trying to be shakespeare or stephen king no offense but if the message gets across F the grammar perfection i can't i just can't i re read the edits and other then a slight mistake a editor can fix its finevery sad i really thought i could air my mind out on this site
I feel your pain, having my first ever attempt rejected twice, I have neither the time nor the energy to sit faffing and editing. And to say it's all about how the story reads is just a poor excuse, especially considering the quality and reading of some of the stories I've tried to read on here!
I understand that a plain unformatted story may need work, but come on! when someone has edited a story to the best of their ability - then had it rejected, it's just not worth the time being spent on it. like you, and many others who read/write erotica, If we wanted to write professionally, we wouldn't be submitting our stories on sites such as this.
though, looking at some of the work on here, it seems people have just avoided quotes and third person writing just to get their work published! perhaps, we should adopt the same stance next time we write?
