"Rejected for Spelling"... ??

I've submitted four chapters in the same gay male story thus far ("Drive", if you're keeping score.) The first three went through without a hitch. The fourth, however, has been rejected. When I click on the reason, it says "did you check to make sure everything is spelled correctly?". That's the only reason given. I don't understand this at all. I check each chapter over at least four times before submitting, and while I'm sure a mistake or two may slip through, I've read more than one story on Literotica that has a spelling mistake in every other sentence. This may well be understandable if English is not an author's first language, but come on, those stories seem to sail right through the detectors - why pick on me?

I'm certain there must be another problem with this chapter than the spelling, but I can't go back and edit what's really wrong if all I know to look for are spelling mistakes. My first personal assessment is thinking that it's perhaps too violent (there's very brief slapping and whipping with a leather strap involved,) but with entire sections devoted to S&M and non-consent, I don't really understand that, either.

My first submission, which never made it onto the site, was a biographical first-time story; after I changed it to make myself of legal age in the story, it still got rejected twice "for spelling". There was no violence at all in that one.

Can anyone please tell me what this rejection reason is for, and what has to be done to "fix" it? It's very discouraging against submitting more.
 
Oh, Judas Priest. It figures that after I go and post all of this, THEN I see the sticky thread.

Sorry about all this.
