Issues in publication

[Mocoff]

I have sent 9 chapters and 2 stories for publication on the 7th of July. They haven't been published yet. While it is true I have used AI for spelling, grammar and formating issues that shouldn't stop them from being published because 3 chapters I had sent earlier have been published. What could be the possible issue if anyone could help I would be greatful.

Unfortunately, prior success doesn't guarantee repeat success. I suspect your text contains legacy traces of those AI tools being used, and your story may be triggering a detector.

You'll find out soon enough - your story will either get published or rejected. In the meantime, there's nothing you can do but wait. Don't pull the content back to Draft. All that does is start the cycle all over again.

More than likely, you either got lucky or got the benefit of the doubt on the three chapters that were published. Using AI is against the site's publishing guidelines and your new stuff is likely suspected. Or basically confirmed, if the editor happens to read this thread.

While that is true I have also mentioned the same thing in authors comments to the editor in all 12 chaptees including the 3 that got published

I have two lengths for my sentences.

1. Too long
2. Too short

Things tend to slow down when there are contests and writers' challenges going on, due to the increase in volume. That might be it.

If you haven't seen those stories moved to the "sent back" list, they just haven't been looked at yet.

As an observation, sending 11 stories in on the same day and expecting them to be published all at once is expecting a lot. Laurel has only herself plus probably some software to review stories for publication. She already publishes over 200 stories every day. If she published all 11 of your stories at once, it's likely she'd have to bump some other author's stories down the list.

As ElectricBlue suggests, don't pull your stories back to draft. That just moves them to the bottom of the queue. Have some patience and wait for Laurel to get to them. Next time, try submitting one every couple of days.

Wait. There's only one person reviewing and approving all stories posted to Lit?

Is that like a fact, or just what you suspect? Cause reviewing 200 stories a day seems legitimately impossible.

That's what Laurel has said, yes.

It's the equivalent of skimming two or three novels a day with the object being to look for problematic content, not to closely read them. It's not a workload I'd be keen to take on, but not impossible for a fast reader.

It's been that way since I started writing here in 2001 and I haven't seen anything on the site that would indicate the situation has changed. I do believe she uses some specific software that looks for major punctuation errors, site rule violations, and obvious usage of AI to generate the story, but it a story makes it through that, it's Laurel's decision.

Okay I didn't know that I was under the impression that a team of 10-15 editors sit and read the stories getting uploaded and not the owner. Yes sending 11 stories is a little much but getting 2 uploads a week shouldn't push any other author down. And after these get uploaded I will revert to weekly uploads as the story I have written is already 70ish chapters in.
