Please submit article . . . but I didn't claim one

Hello! I just received an email from a customer asking me to submit the articles I claimed that are due today. I have never claimed any articles for this customer. I am wondering if this was a blanket email sent to everyone. (?)

Re: A Gentle Plea to CC - Consistency in Editing

Hi all! I'm prowling around here after a long hiatus from CC, trying to figure out what has changed. So let me get this straight: The words "this," "that," "those," and "you" have fallen out of favor? I can sort of understand the first three, but avoiding &quo...

Back after hiatus: Can't figure out new submission procedure

Hi all! I am back after a hiatus, and I see that things at CC have changed! The last time I submitted an article here, I uploaded the document from my computer. Now, I see a place to cut and paste the text (I think). I cannot find any hints on how to use this system in the Writer Guidelines or Write...

Re: Introducing Writer Pools

Yes, great questions. I notice there is a pool we can apply to called "Article" which is not listed specifically in Constant's post above. It almost sounds like all of us must "re-interview for the job", so to speak. I hope that's not the case, but if it is, I'll do it!

Back after a hiatus

Hi all, You may or may not remember me, but I'm back after a hiatus. Truth be told, I'd been doing fairly well here, but I got my second rejection and it scared me, so I let work and kids and other life issues come between me and my writing. But I missed it, and I'm back, hopefully for a long time! ...

Article Length in Public Request--too long?

Hi there,
I've got an article I'd like to submit to a public request, but my article is significantly shorter than the length indicated by the customer. Should I go ahead and submit anyway, or will I be penalized somehow for this?

Hi Lori,
I've had articles approved on weekends before, so I don't think they take every weekend off! :D

Re: Xomba Changes

Hi, I just joined InfoBarrel and am trying to get the hang of everything, but I don't understand how it all works. I'd be happy to add anyone as my "friend" on IB, but what does that do? I mean, besides being a friendly gesture, does it help with page ranks or views or something? Any info ...

Re: Payment

I don't know--I just changed my account to "semi monthly" and I haven't gotten anything yet either. I want to say the 15th, but I don't know that for sure.

Re: Important on citation, etc.

Hi Hannah,
I was quite paranoid about citations myself when I first started. You are not alone! The advice you receive on these forums is priceless. Good luck to you!

Perhaps my post was unclear. I was asking for clarification of your first post. :D

Re: Editors not making edits?

Write2Earn, are you saying you got rejected for articles you didn't even write? If so, it could be a computer glitch. (?)
