Thank you for your insights. I'm not trying to be insensitive about this, but your article did have quite a few grammatical and spelling errors which can detract from your credibility as a published author. I recommend carefully proofreading what your write, and using spelling and grammar-checking tools to help you catch those errors before publishing.

Some examples:

"... that another thing I written was accepted." Missing the word "had". Should be "... that another thing I had written was accepted."

"if you are willing to stick it out..." The "i" should be capitalized.

"You're best place to start are drabbles and flash fiction." Use "places" instead of "place" and "your" instead of "you're". Should be "Your best places to start are drabbles and flash fiction."

"...willing to buy shorter pieces and, one average, it will..." The "one" should be "on".

"This is meant to encouraging." Missing the word "be". Should be "This is meant to be encouraging."

"... when I went to resend it again." Redundant use of "again". Should be "... went to resend it."

"... those improvements might bye the push..." The "bye" should be "be".
