unfair standards & biased admins
As an author who spent a lot of time writing stories (which were greatly appreciated in other places), I didn't appreciate the way the admins treated me. They only allow you to pick one category for your story, along with a limited number of tags. This would have been fine if I wasn't punished for using the 'wrong' one. Nobody ever told me where a story like mine was to be placed, leaving me to take a guess. On top of this, the admin who reviewed my story had clearly not read any more than the first paragraph... The "advice" I was given was to add punctuation. It HAD punctuation, it was written properly with complete sentences, and had correct word usage. It has been proofread and ran through Grammarly more than once.
What I've gathered from my first-time experience trying to share my story to this platform, I am not welcome. Compared to some of the things that have been accepted from other people, my story was more than correct. How can spelling errors, incorrect word usage, switching between past and present tense at inappropriate times, etc. get through when mine couldn't? The admins have proven their lack of acceptance of styles unique to authors. They haven't even tried to hide the biases, all the goof-ups are clear to see in the stories they allow.
