Submission Question

Post by compensatedcat »

Hello there. I am brand new to Constant Content, and I thought I would get my feet wet by writing one of the "good opportunities" that were sent to me via email. The one I wanted to write was a public request that expires on 6/12 according to the message I received.

I do not see this article listed on the drop down menu for public requests on the submission form, and I would not be able to send it through private submission since I haven't had any articles accepted yet. So, how would I submit this article? Is it possible it was pulled before its expiration date? I am not going to write it if it can't be submitted.

Thank you very much for your time.

I am bumping this, since I asked it on the 9th of last month, and it didn't actually get posted until today. Thanks.

Hi there, yes, the customer can pull the request early if they want to, so maybe they did.

Personally, I think it's better to get your feet wet in the regular pool. That's just me. Up to you, really.

Thanks for your reply. I really doubt that's what is happening though, unless the emails CC sends are horribly inaccurate. They include these articles day after day, (at least, that's what I noticed when I was still paying attention), yet I could not find them in the list of requests.

Anyway, I will probably just submit five articles and hope they get approved so that I can reply directly to the links.
