Rejection Query

Post by geniuswaitress »

Hi. I'm curious about my article "GQ Shines a Light on Robert Geller's Dark Vision."

It was rejected for formatting. I'm uncertain why, unless it's possibly because some of the paragraphs were quite short.

I visited the client's website, and it appears that they want blog-like content. I wrote to what seems to be the style and length they are looking for. 200 word articles might have sections that brief.

Is that it, or is there another reason I've missed.

Our guidelines specify that 12pt Times New Roman or Arial are used.

Thanks,

D'oh! I haven't done that since my first articles! I veered from my usual strategy to avoid that problem. Sorry!

And thanks for the quick reply.
