Removing Stories?

[wastelandwriter]

Hi,

Can anyone tell me how to get a story removed from the site? What's the process & how long does it take?

You submit the story title with the word delete after it. I'd also add 'delete this story' in the notes field. You don't have to submit the actual story again.

It goes into the file as a new story, but edits/deletes take a back seat to new stories so it could take a few days

I recently did this to three of my stories as I'd re-submitted them edited together as one and wanted to avoid duplicates. Laurel would very much like to know the reason for deleting the story, but she was very clear that it was all up to you. The story and reasons are your own, do with them as you will.

If you are deleting multiple stories, simply name the story 'DELETE' and list the stories in the body-field, adding any reasons (if you want to) in the comment field below. Took 4-5 days but was no issue.

In addition you might provide a link to the stories you want deleted. It would help Laurel out and might get them deleted quicker.
