I've never had a story rejected on this site, but it's happened to me (three times, I think) on another site. Those people were very specific about what the reason was.
It doesn't tell me. It only lists the guidelines and suggests I read them, amend, and re-submit. I've had 37 other stories published, so it's not formatting. It doesn't include under age or bestiality, so I'm unclear which other one I'm breaking.
It's close to 30,000 words, sorry.
It's in the non-consent category and it's quite graphic, but I've been unable to find a specific instruction on what's allowable and what isn't. I've had 37 other stories published, so I doubt it's grammatical as it matches my other stories.
Wow, did you do all that as single submission? Usually I'd break something like that into at least three chapters in a series, assuming I could find break points. I don't know, let me think about it. I would probably only be able to skim it.
You also my find some random person in the Story Feedback section who would look at it.
I have been having a "conversation" with the moderator in the comments box. Because I have had one of my stories rejected.
I did look (partially) at the other Non-consent story you did get through in May. So the male prisoner in that is sort of - enjoying? - the sexual abuse he's getting from the staff, including at least one female employee. (Is there another woman after page 2?) I guess it passed because he seems to like the very first encounter.
Non consent rejections usually get down to the policy requirement that the victim must eventually get some satisfaction from the sexual activity being performed without their consent.
I did try resubmitting the story with a note asking for help as to which guideline(s) I'd breached, but it just sat in the pending area without being bounced or passed. Much as it is now. I will take your advice and try again, thanks.
I think you've got it right. The abused does come to enjoy her abuse, but it is quite a long way into the story. If I can't get this story accepted as it is, I will try rewriting so the person being abused finds pleasure earlier.
Thanks for your help.
Thanks for looking. I think the violence is much more graphic in my Prison Bitch story, but, you're right. In most cases, in that story, the abuse comes after the main character has had pleasure, and the abused is male. The new story is about a woman who has been kidnapped and subjected to pain experiments to see if she can be forced to enjoy it.
I was just guessing, but your description of the story might reveal the problem. It's not consistent, perhaps, but if the woman to doesn't feel pleasure fairly close to if not at the beginning, that's probably enough to get it bounced. Also, it sounds like she must be in bondage of some sort from the beginning. while the other character is sort of physically restrained, I guess, but not with ropes or whatever. (I didn't read the last two pages.)
Yes, please. That would be awesome. I think this story is one of the best ones I've written and I'd hate to have to drastically change it.
Okay, I sent a message about it. I also offered to help you submit there because the software is old and quirky.
Thank you.
I should mention that I sent you what I think is a private message from your profile contact box. There is a "conversation" option in the task bar at the top of the forums. It seems that the latter is a new option (this year) I think, and everything used to be private messages. Anyway, you are welcome to use the email address I included.
There's nothing showing anywhere yet, does it take some time to come through?
Okay, I'll send it via a "conversation," which should show up if you click the envelope symbol on the right side of the blue bar at the top of the forums. Not sure why the other message didn't get through, but there have been some software glitches in this site as they attempt to "modernize."
