Hey folks.
I just had a submission Sent Back. It was my first, and I'm still finding my way around here, so I wonder if anyone could help me out.
It's a first-person story, narrated by the main character. He is 21 when the story begins, but there are a lot of scenes/vignettes from earlier in his life.
Specifically, there is one line:
"I sure thought about sex-- I was a thirteen year-old boy"
And another, when he is implied to be fourteen:
"I couldn't do it-- I mean, I jerked off, almost religiously-- but I couldn't think of Mary-Jane when I did."
The "Sent Back" notification is vague, listing only:
- "Was there an underage (under 18 years old) sexual relationship in my story?"
Would those two lines be enough for rejection?
Those are the only lines in the entire chapter that are even vaguely erotic. Maybe that means the story sucks, but let me explain:
This is the first of two non-erotic chapters introducing a longer erotic/romantic story. It will eventually have some sexual content, but there is literally no explicit sexual content whatsoever in this chapter, and it was submitted to the Non-Erotic category.
As I said, I'm new to this, but I'm already getting the idea that the site admins have a pretty heavy workload, and out of respect I don't want to waste their time with another submission they can't accept.
Can anybody help me out?
