How Long Submissions Take to be Approved

December 6, 2009
By Anonymous

It seems that when you submit something, it takes weeks, perhaps even months for it to be approved. Everything is always published on the website, is it not? Has anyone ever received a letter saying your article was not approved and will never will be? I don't think so. Why not just post everything up right away so we no longer have to wait and wait to see our work up online.

Teen Ink gets hundreds of submissions a day. All of these submissions have to be censored for language and sensitive material. So if you want the process to hurry up do the site a favor and asterisk out your own profanities for one.

I realize that not all articles are approtiate and decent, but they're all posted. I'm also on inkpop .com and when I post a short story or poem there, it goes up right away unless I don't want it to.

Give the people who work on the site a break, they're probably trying as hard as they can!
