Story Edit question.

[Lalah]

One of my story's description was ok a couple of days ago but now it's changed in the last couple of days and shows code. I want to edit it. I know how to submit an edit, but it's just the description I want to change.

Do I have to put in the whole story, with keywords and everything?

I don't know about the key words, but yes, you have to resubmit the entire story to edit that one little bit.

As far as I know, yes you would have to resubmit ... but I think I'd include a note saying that the only changes made were to the description. Letting them know the story has not changed from what is posted might speed up the process.

Make sure that you check your story to see if the "smart quotes" in the story have reverted tot he word processer codes as well. You might well need to submit a complete edit of the story.

The problem is that the quotes and apostrophe's will look normal in your word-processer so you won't be able to spot the problems easily -- you need to look for quotes and apostrophes that slant or look like "sixes and nines" and replace them with the generic ASCCI characters, which are straight up and down.

I briefly scanned the story and didn't see it happen anywhere else. What's messed up is the description was ok for the first couple days, it only recently changed.

EDIT: How strange, now the title shows right.

I didn't see any smart quotes in the body of the story either, but I just made a quick scan of the first few paragraphs.

The apostrophe in your blurb didn't change, it's still a "smart quote" -- your browser is just interpreting the smart quote code properly and displaying the "smart" apostrophe that was intended.
