My latest story just got rejected 
There is no clear description as to why, just two suggestions: Does it contain under-age sexual activity? And; Are the paragraphs too long?
The paragraphs are fine, short sentences and only one 'speaker' per paragraph.
No sexual activity for under eighteens, but the main character (explicitly introduced as 28, has just attended a 10 year school reunion, was married for 5 years and divorced for 2) walking by a river bank remembers a pool as a place where 'a gang of kids used to swim naked. The girls stopped stripping off when puberty hit...'
Is that alone enough to get a story rejected? A simple mention of pre-pubescent skinny dipping without any explicit description? Seems a bit harsh.
