Greetings from Chicago!

Post by Viqi French »

Hello everyone,

After learning about Constant-Conent a few months ago, I'm finally all signed-up!

I'm feeling a bit lost, but I'm sure it'll all come together.

Can't wait to get started and discover if this is a good place for me.

I'm wondering if it makes sense to focus on a writing niche here. I'll look around for prior posts about this, but let me know what you think.

Best,
Celeste Stewart

Best to you,

Hi Viqi - we ask that authors do not submit directly to the Premium Articles category. Please place your articles in appropriate topical subcategories. Editors actually choose articles for the Premium category as a secondary category.

Thanks,
Ed

Oops! Sorry, Ed.

As you know, I'm going to fix the formatting on that article in a little while, so I'll save it under ARTICLES instead when I do.

Fyi, how this kind of happened...

1. I first tried saving my article under ARTICLES, and it wouldn't save for some reason.

2. I noticed a sentence in red that said something about Free Articles no longer being accepted.

3. From that, I put 2 + 2 together and got...19?! And that's why I tried saving under PREMIUM. And it finally worked - much to your chagrin. :cry:

Jokes aside, I'll try to get it out of there and in the correct place after I get the a.m. house to-do's done.

Thanks for your patience.

When subbing under Articles, be sure to pick a sub-category while you're at it. Ex: Artices>Gardening
