Hail, folks,
I uploaded a new story as per usual: .txt file, title, description, story tags, my typical "Author's Notes" at the beginning. Yet, whereas my stories are usually posted within 4 days, and usually show views even while still "pending," this one still has 0 views and has been pending for a week. I've noticed this lately: whereas my stories used to get a few views (roughly 40) prior to being approved, now they get none. But still, none of them have taken this long. I know my stories aren't "good," but they can't be THAT bad, right? I mean, I've even had rejections come faster than this. I wouldn't normally be so impatient, but my readers disliked my last (non-erotic) tale, so I wanted to put this one up to make up for it. My readership has been badly dwindling: I used to get thousands of views, one of my stories have 20,800+. I don't know if that's a lot, but my most recent ones are struggling just to reach 500 or 1,000. So I wanted to start posting with more frequency, but now this story seems to be endlessly pending. Have I done something wrong in my submission?

5 days, eh? Guess things slowed down a bit around the holidays. My old stuff usually went up in 4, sometimes even sooner. No problem though. If it persists, I'll do as you advised. Otherwise, I'll just shut up and be patient, two things at which I am very bad, hahaha. 
Thanks for your timely response.
