There is a place for comments in books you approve as well... I never pput them in the lon synopsis...

I rejected a couple of books with no reasons given. Then it occurred to me that if I put my reasons in the Comments section, which I think is on the page two underneath the Accept or Reject, that the administrators would see it and it would get conveyed to the submitter. I know that the Comments don't go into the collection whenthe book is approved, so if we want to warn or notify readers of anything, like dialect or possibly Adult material or profanity if we haven't checked Adult, we have to add it to the long synopsis. But, as I say, I assume that the administrators read the Comments section for a Rejected book. As far as getting people to do it, your appreciation of knowing why your book was rejected and our discussion here may have some effect. Of course, if I'm wrong about that use of the Comments section, presumably someone will let us know. Cindy --- bud schwab <budschwab@xxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > Hi Cindy, > > Thanks for the feedback.
