[KP the nut]

My story is wrapped in 70 journal pages. I will sort it into a manageable chunk. @anthony approx how many words do you want.

I this will sound a little strange but I can only get on the site on my phone and I don't know my password, I tryed yesterday to sort it out but I gave up,

Sorry, but that sounds a bit odd, because you are clearly logged in to post here. I don't really understand what your problem is?

 

[anthony]

Sorry, but that sounds a bit odd

Not if he typed it on his computer, and accesses this site by his phone...

@TonyG, I have sent you an email address via PC.

There is no limit... though you probably need to cut it down and make it an actual story, as journal pages are likely notes.

 

[TonyG]

Haha I said it was odd, I'll get it sent today, I'm a bit old school and we have a new computer with windows 8 and just saying that it makes me angry using it is a understatement, yesterday I felt like throwing it on the ground and jumping on it.

@KP the nut My humble advice is to keep what you send in under about 3,000 words (a good six single-spaced pages). Anything larger than that becomes difficult to edit and may be stuck in editing limbo for a very long time. :shifty:

As there was a member today who confused the anonymity and editors rewording things in the "My Story" content, being the story of your trauma and PTSD journey, to other articles and such, I just want to reiterate that editors rewording / rewriting only applies to the "My Story" submission WHEN the author wants anonymity. There is obviously no reason for editors to do such, outside of standard editing requirements, when the person is happy to have their username or name published as the author.

IF you want total anonymity, then editors will do this, combined with your own writing of the content by using false names and places within your story, just to ensure complete and utter anonymity for those who choose it. Otherwise, we will publish significantly as is, again, other than what editors deem are necessary changes.

I'm in. I'll try to do it this weekend. Do you have a deadline?

 

[anthony]

No deadline...
