No, my three articles were released back into general sale shortly after I emailed support for the second time.

Thanks.

Thanks. I'll do that.

Hi everyone, I have to contact support to ask them to email a client so that he/she will buy or return 3 of my articles (currently on "waiting" for 2 weeks). I sent an email via "contact us" but haven't heard anything in almost a week. Is that the proper way to contact support, o...

Jane,
I guess so. I'll just keep plugging away, and give support an email in a few days so I can get those articles released from the person's cart.

What are the chances that a reminder email from support will actually result in a sale? Wishful thinking on my part?

Rebecca

I wish I could say that the articles I have as "waiting" have been sold..but they haven't. They're in limbo, presumably forgotten in someone's cart. How frustrating - to get excited, thinking I was going to FINALLY have a sale (three, in fact!) but I guess I was mistaken. I too would be in...

and good luck on yours converting to a sale, too!

any change in status, Jane?

Thank you. I too am hoping they convert to sales. It would be nice to kick-start my sales with three at once!

Ok, this is a little off topic of the encouragement thread, but here's a question: how long are articles usually in the "wait" queue? I first noticed them last night, and it's been about 9 hours. Is that normal?

Rebecca

Yay! My fingers are crossed...

jadedragon - thanks!

I'm so excited..I see that three of my articles are showing as "waiting"....I assume that means someone has placed the articles in their cart? And now I just need to wait for the sale to go through....

Hi all. I'm relatively new here (joined around June 12ish) and have 29 articles submitted, 28 accepted. I've sold one, a request - early on (I think it was day 2!) so that got me pumped. I've been responding to a lot of the requests and have also submitted some non-requests, but not many. Sometimes ...

I second the motion by GyZ re The Elements of Style. I picked it up last week and it's very good. Small but information-dense.

Rebecca

Yay!

I have one requested article still waiting. But I am starting to learn patience....


Now, if I could start selling, I'd feel much better about myself. I have close to 30 articles on here, and only 1 sale. gah.

The original requester could still purchase it. All is not lost..
