damn, annie, how did that one slip by without getting any comments? damn! it's still in my head, and i think it will be for quite some time. ...

 

[fridayam]

I'll have to get back onto Laurel, to see if she's given the subject any consideration yet.

apart from that, i've 3 little teeny poems added that so far have a lot of views, and only one vote/comment between them. now everbody say 'awww....'

and apart from that, the job screening today was awful! i am so NOT cut out for telesales

I never thought you would be! It isn't a failing

not completely I had an email but like to read them on the piece, but I'm as bad at keeping up with reading the new ones

... i gave it my best but i'm just not so good with a dead phone as a prop and trying to sell 'wonderful offers' with the punchy brightness they are looking for *snigger*. oh well

 

[butters]

ah well, submitted Head to Head from my cache here, previously published, let's see how that does. really time for me to get busy writing new, but finding the time is another matter and when i have the time, finding the right write is another.

wow this is the first time I have had a poem rejected even all the ones about childhood abuse went through ...... all I had in this was that 'she was dressed like a street wise kid' !!

do they have key words that flag an auto reject, annie? might be the case, perhaps?

As far as I'm concerned it's got less about under 18 sex in it that the last one that had a child mother!

You had a poem ejected! I would certainly ask why. The rules say sexual situations. They will not post picts with kids (I had a cool Haiku rejected because it had the prettiest baby pict). But they will let you post that stuff on the threads. Lemme find my Haiku and show off. I love the pict.

 

[Esperanza_Hidalgo]

LOL--ejected. I am such a dork!

I'll have a fiddle with it see if I can't get it accepted under American rules (which I must say are different from English laws lol)

I hate being forced to change things to fit rules. I have a story with an underage sex reference. Very important to the plot. Since I felt it would be rejected, I wrote Laurel so she would send it to the editors to see EXACTLY what I needed to do to get it under the radar. Thing is, I can post it here, just not as a story. Take a look.

[Esperanza_Hidalgo]

This Haiku was rejected

 

[Esperanza_Hidalgo]

With all that being said. I do not blame the site administrators. Because this is a business, and they must comply or be attacked by all the fundies with possible lawsuits. Not only that, there are morale implications. Child sexual abuse can never be tolerated.

Sorry Chippy, I went on a morale crusade tangent. Now where are the damn poppies!

 

[UnderYourSpell]

It must be as Chip said 'key words' because I've had worse than my present poem go through, I waas surprised it did at the time and would have understood if it hadn't even though it was anti paedo too. Anyway I've put a line in and will wait and see if it does the trick. No offence but I can see why the story wasn't accepted, even if it's meant to disgust there's still enough description there to excite if you understand me. The picture is another thing entirely but thems the rules I guess and if they are not going to let any through yours is treated the same way, however cute and non-sexual it is

I agree. I must comply, and a perv might get excited over it, even if that is not my intention. So, I will comply as they wish.

BTW, that is a great poem Annie. I tweeted it and linked it to my blog. Hope ya don't mind...TOO LATE!

I better edit it out cuz I feel uncomfortable putting it up--so see, just doesn't feel good (that is my previous post, not your poem).

This is beautiful and certainly not sexual. I'm glad you posted it here.

 

[UnderYourSpell]

Still waiting it's still pending lol

 

[UnderYourSpell]

still pending ...... I've never pended so long before do you think they are trying to tell me something?

 

[Esperanza_Hidalgo]
