Editing or Revising Published Stories?

[wastelandwriter]

Is there a new procedure for putting in an edit or a revision of an existing story?

I submitted a revision of a series chapter a few days ago with EDIT/REVISE in the chapter title and some instructions in the appropriate submissions window asking for a swap. It sat in the "pending" queue for a few days, and now the pending queue says 0 but the old story is there rather than the revision.

Anyone know what I did wrong? Is there a proper way to do this?

Wait a little longer. When an edit stops being pending it usually takes a day or so for the revised version to appear. (Unless you are getting to it from a bookmark - the old version might always appear.)

If it hasn't been changed in a day or so, send a PM (Private Message) to Laurel asking about the edited version.

Cool, thanks!

Editing takes longer to approve than submitting a new story.

Or, editing takes place at certain times of the month.

I'm not sure which it is, because I edit a lot, and sometimes they happen in a few days, or sometimes longer.
