"Your Life Purpose Awakens You and the World"

Post by mmzavadil »

My article was rejected for: "We accept only completely original content."

I referenced a third-party quote in the article. I would just like clarification: We are not allowed to quote other sources?

Thank you for your time.

Thanks Ed,

I'm having a problem locating your Fair Use rules. Where are they posted?

Thanks,

Fair Use rules are general rules that guide writers into using other writers' work withough plagiarizing. You can look up Fair Use or "plagiarism" on the web - many university websites will clearly spell how another person's writing may be used.
