Refused article

[ProseyRosie]

Hello,

I'm responding to email I received last week concerning a submission that was refused.

According to the reviewer, it was refused because CC doesn't accept articles written from a first-person POV or articles that include web addresses and subjective opinions.

The article was written in second-person. As for the tone not being objective, that seems arbitrary. But maybe I'm wrong.

After re-reading the article, I see that I did not edit a few links according to CC standards. I can fix that. (Every article that I've sold via CC has included edited web addresses.)

Please advise.

I get away with some things sometimes. I was adding pictures for a while and it was great cuz I was selling and then they told me pics aren't allowed. Lame.

I got away with "let's" a few times too and then I got caught. xD

I hear you, Lysis. You win some, you lose some.

It could be that the editor who reviewed my article has a stake in “X” and had a “Leave Britney alone!” moment while reading what I felt was an objective product review. Or maybe he/she just doesn’t think my writing is all that sexy. My money's on the latter.

Happy holidays!
