I would appreciate comments/corrections regarding The Fairy Ring that I submitted recently. As well Tears of Love and Spring Breakup - I am more than happy to receive critiques and/or suggestions as to how to bring my material up to your standards. I did proof read them as well as had other people proof read and edit these stories. They are in 12 pica type, single spaced, double between paragraphs. However, they were justified (I thought for easier reading) The grammer has been gone over and corrected as well as punctuation. Is it style, or content?

Grandma,
I'm not sure why your article was rejected but maybe you should post this in the article rejections part of this forum
you might get your answer faster.
What did your rejection email say? The last article I submitted, had the words barbecue and camfer spelled wrong.
I guess I should use a spell checker, but anyways, they simply told me what was wrong and asked that I correct it.

Thank you for your advice and suggestions which I very much appreciate. It is very kind of you to take the time to set me straight. I will certainly follow up on this as I had not thought of these suggestions. Thank ou once again, happy writing! Eva Beames.Eva,
Check out the 'Short Stories' section under the 'General' subheading in the Articles area. This sounds like the type of project you are interested in. Maybe posting your stories under this category will get you better results. Also, under the 'General' subheading is where poems can be found, if you are interested in that as well.
I'm new here too and find different things every time I log in. It just takes time to learn your way around.
Good luck.
