New Story & Nifty.


Well as some of you may know Ive started a new story. The first chapter is posted at efiction.

I decided to post on nifty as well. So I send it in via my hotmail account, two days go by without a reply so I think hmm maybe I messed up and didnt acctually send it. So I resent it using my main mail account, then 4 hours later I get a relpy.....

 

Basically the guy there told me he was 'a little concerned about the

direction.' Ok... so whats that about?!?

 

I emailed them back asking what their concerns are... Now I understand the submission guidelines so maybe he's worried after reading the chapter that there will be assault on a minor... I dunno, I guess I just need to wait for a reply.

 

Ive read some pretty weird shit on there, so I have no idea why there worried about my posting....

 

If you've not read it, I urge to go to efiction, cause I need feedback.. Pretty please!

 

Thanks

 

Dave

Yeah, that is really odd. Nifty posts just about anything. I had another friend recently who submitted a story to Nifty, which he had done before without any problems, but Nifty had problems with that one, although I don't think they ever explained why. It did eventually get posted, though ... after a couple of weeks. I didn't even realize they took the time to read through story submissions. Oh well ... all I can say is to be patient and see what they say (although I wouldn't hold my breath for a detailed reply). Good luck! ;)

Maybe Nifty is tightening up. They have gotten a lot of criticism for some of their stories with more... controversial themes.

 

While I am dead set against censorship, writers have to be aware that there is a good old fashioned witch-hunt in progress complete with angry mobs, pitchforks and torches. Bush's hair-brained minions don't really care whose head they put on a pig-pole because it's not really about justice. It's about being able to grandstand for the cameras and say see, we made you safer.

Well yeh, I agree with you. Its the same over here to a degree. My point is though, I really can't see why they would feel the need to censor my story. I don't feel like there are any border line issues involved...?

 

Meh maybe in biased lol

Write chapter 2. They probable think that the twins are going to hurt Drew, actually I thought that Simmon was going to die, which he might yet. That dream had a meaning in your story I just not know how you tick yet to see where your going.

 

Great job buddy, I look forward to the next part. :great:
