A work possibly stuck

[DarkSollat]

I wonder if one of my work stuck somewhere in IT

I had a work in 'pending' status, which after some time turned into 'new' - but not 'published new', just 'new'. I then panicked a little, opened it and processed it once again. Now, the work is in 'pending new' status and I wonder if it didn't somehow stuck between being 'pending' and 'published'.

I may overreact, but it's my first submission to Lit, so I'm kind of nervous.

Wait 24 hours.

By resubmitting, you might have glitched the publication process, so you need to wait and see. If it's not gone live by tomorrow, my recommendation would be to submit it again, same title, same text, same everything, but add a Note to the Editor saying you think you cocked it up. But this time, don't touch it again .

It sounds like a case of premature publication. With practice and more experience, you'll last longer .
