I've tried reposting a story from mid-october three times now. I'll try to the docx trick next I guess. I used to think it was so great that lit would get my stories out in 48h, but now I've come to appreciate the reliable week it takes on lush : )

Hope things get fixed around here pretty soon because I really prefer lit as a reader.

Had this problem literally this time last year when trying to get my first story out. It eventually came out in late Jan/early Feb.

But the whole pending length could be hit or miss. The last (October) submission I had was only in pending for about 2 days before it was published, while the others before were days to weeks at a time. The current chapter I’ve submitted (on Dec 11th) got 23 hours of pending status before the timer reset, not sure what that means, but maybe it’s a good thing? Still reads error 404 when I clicked on my submitted link though.

I really do feel for you, you’ve been very unlucky with submissions and resending

We write for free and deserve at least the courtesy of a response to inquiries on where our stories are in the queue.

Don’t expect any such courtesy around here

I’m of such a low opinion of those that run this site I’m not even compelled to type the expletives they deserve to describe them at the moment
