Back in October I wrote an article for a request which wanted fun, playful, and magazine style articles about artists. So I wrote a piece about a new geek fandom artists who is up and coming into the art scene. (The request expired by the time they reviewed the article over a week later after the initial submission.) The article was edited, revised and accepted and stood for sale for nearly 30 days before I took it down to fix some glaring comma placement issues. I resubmitted it and had a battery of rejections, most of which were minor and easily fixed. (Except the rejection for being redundant.. UGH keywords do not equal redundantcy...)
HOWEVER, it was also being rejected for being an autobiography. Correct me if I am wrong, but is not an autobiography a biography you write about yourself? I understand we cannot write self-bibliographies. And since the article only related the artists work and not her life, history, or even art history or education (it ONLY spoke about her current works of art and how these are being received among fans and media) does it still qualify as a biography?
