So glad to hear I’m not the only one with this DS experience. The articles I snuff through hastily are the ones that get instantly approved, the ones I put a lot of effort into get rewrites, and one rejection to date really ticked me off. It was a list but the topic broad, so I tried to cover all bases. I was asked to completely redo it, they felt it was too long for a list. I did it, taking out half my article. Then it came back rejected due to ‘format’ when I changed it based on what they were saying. At first I took it personal, even looked up how to appeal it but I found a loophole that will save me time and money. Let the rejection go, chalk it up to one of those things you can’t change. However, notice it stays in your console. Wait until your work desk is clear and suggest an article title that will successfully cover your work, in my case this is clearly a how to article and not a list, so I hope to get it republished in the future, for twice the money. Cheers. xoxoxo IM

Felicia, Cyn and Deborah!

Thank you!!!! This has been my experience exactly. In fact, I had a string of really weird CEs and I just had to wonder *what* was up? Asking bizarre questions, making really snarky comments… **and** missing copy editing points…once, while figuring out how to answer a question, I noticed a typo in my work and fixed it…and thought to myself “isn’t *this* what the CE is *supposed* to be doing???”

So I had a frustrating week, for sure.

In fact, I retaliated with a really immature snarky post back to one CE — I just couldn’t take it any more : )

I usually rise about stuff like that, ah well…
