I have a question. It seems to me that some of the more established writers get their articles on the board almost instantly! Is there a reason behind this? For example, this morning I recieved the e-mail about a public request for articles on Daylilies, and I just submitted one. But I noticed that there is already one on the board. It usually takes at least 48 hours for mine to get looked at. I'm just a little confused as to how to best utilize the site to get my articles up in a timely fashion. The same thing happened with the jogging stroller articles. I submitted as soon as I saw the request, but there were already several on the board by established writers.
Honestly, it just varies. The editors try to get everything approved within 24 hours, but it's not always possible. Also, some authors crank out an article for a request within 30 minutes! Just try to be patient.
OK, I'm embarassed now. not only did it get accepted in minutes, but it also just sold. Please ignore this thread everyone. Sorry editors if I offended anyone.
