Delay in story submission

YOU are brand new.

YOU do not set the publishing schedule.

YOU have no say in that process any more than any of the other thousands of authors here.

And it's YOU, a word, not 'u', a letter.

Hey,
Hope all of you are having a great day.
I am having a problem with my story submission. They are taking way too long to be published. It is really affecting my release schedule. I want to be consistent with my output. Like some time it takes weeks. Sometime longer than that. I am worried if it takes this long some people might lose interest in the story itself. Also I edit and make changes based on feed back, it is vital for my writing process. So this thing is really taking a toll on me.

My latest story has been in pending list for more than a week. Is there way to get published faster. Please help me.

Thank u much.

You have six stories published, and all within the last three months, making you a new author, and an uncertain one to the site reviewers. They'll spend more time reviewing your stories than they do mine or other known quantities. And every time they have to reject a story to remind you of their rules, they'll take longer the next time ensuring you didn't try putting one past them.

The first year I started posting, my stories took 3-7 days to publish. But since I've narrowed my stories consistently to just Loving Wives, the characters are in their 40's & 50's, and every time I consider including edgy (like rape or BDSM), I put a note to the Admins when posting warning them of it and why I think it's still acceptable by their standards, IE, a rape reference wound up with the "victim" actively participating and wanting it, which makes it acceptable by the site standards. But without that alert to the Admins, they might have spent longer reviewing the story. Now my time from clicking "Publish" is down to just 12 hours on my last story, but that's because they're comfortable knowing I play by their rules.

The site has their rules which they feel are needed to continue operating around the world in different countries with varying tolerance for depictions of things like underage sex, bestiality, rape, etc. There are other publishing sites which allow such things. But those sites don't have the wider audience LitE has, and those sites have more restricted distribution.

I tend to use full words and sentences when posting here or even in text. However, in writing, I'll spell words the way the character might say them. "Ya think so?" is one example. Like you, shortcuts in communications on here kind of irritates me. We're writers. Do writers have such a hard time spelling the word--you?
