The third chapter of The Price of Embezzlement got rejected because it still had unresolved editors notes from the Google Docs review.
Having other people leave comments and suggestions on Google Docs is a FANTASTIC way to edit stories, but if you decide to upload the docx file directly to Lit, make sure you resolve all comments first.
In a way @Duleigh did me a great service, because I forgot to add an author's note, and this rejection was the chance I needed to do that.
BUT the funniest part is that the comments that I left in, which got the story rejected, were just 3 spots where Duleigh added a "" emoji to highlight humorous parts of the story, and one spot where he said "Hey, that part is really realistic".
Regardless, sir, I appreciate your hard work (and the work of all my beta-readers. But now I know to remove everything before publication.
