Status Draft

[Timesup]

Story was sent back. Status is saying Draft. Meaning?

Is it in Sent Back? If you look there, it will tell you why it was rejected.

If it's rejected, it goes into Draft status so you can fix it and resubmit. Management wants you to publish the story, they just can't (in their minds) allow it through in its current form.

The story concerns a married couple of 20 years who role play as Daddy/little girl. I’m thinking that was why and changed it to little angel. The dialogue was very similar to some other characters in stories I’ve already had published on Lit. Of course, I could be wrong. It’s one of my favorites and I really want it published.

As @TheWritingGroup says, there will be a reason for the rejection, usually as a set of questions. Address the questions, tweak your text and resubmit.

Given your content summary, my guess is your story is triggering a word bot with typical language which could be construed as under age. That's going to be the first thing to look at. Going deeper, it's most likely how you portray the little's age. If you portray her as child-like or pre-teen young, you're going to have an uphill struggle to get the content over the eighteen year line. Not sure how you make a forty (?) year old woman convincing as a little, though, in the role play, but that's probably a separate issue.

Underage anything is verboten here.

@Timesup, there's also the possibility that your story was flagged incorrectly. If you are sure that's the case, include a polite note to Laurel about why you feel the story was flagged in error.
