*H'lo....

Posted a new story the other day, normally when I post they list as "pending" with a link. That way I get to go back in and add or delete, fix my screwups or make them worse as I see fit, gives me 4-5 days before my stuff gets rejected...*LOL*..

The last one just says pending and it ain't a link so it's all screwed up and I can't get it open to develop out the characters or anything...*snif...

What is up with that? Did I screw up?

Or do I need to get it all spelled right the first time? Boy that would just sukk...

MGM..

you're kidding, right?

Those red letters are the words you've spelled wrong. It's the computer trying to tell you to fix it.

Set your Spell Checker to Suggest Correction . . .

Then just keep hitting Accept until your hand goes numb.




My Writing Procedure


I use a Character Generator, hooked to a Plot Generator, through a Story Spawner, then follow with a Style Checker, a Grammar Checker, and a Spell Checker.

Finally, I have the neighbour's dog, Spot, sniff it with his Smell Checker. After that I merely do a Spot Check to see whether Spot made any editorial comments.

If Spot has kept all four of his legs on the ground during the examination, I submit my manuscript.
 
"Then just keep hitting Accept until your hand goes numb."

*My hand is alreddy num *cause i reads alla those stories you guys write..*BOTH of them in facct.

Bit of a threadjack, but one of my stories has been hovering in "Acceptance Pending" land for about 4 days now. I'm wondering if I should be worried about it. Anyone else experiencing/experienced a slowdown lately?

There has been a slowdown; my last story had three views on it for three days before it went up (took a week total, I think).
