Has anyone else submitted an article to AC and gotten a response that it needed double spacing between paragraphs (which this one already had) and needed a different title? When I checked it after the first time I got this response, it looked like it was overflowing the page, so I made each line shorter and re-submitted it with a slightly different title, only to get the same response. This has never happened before.

It's probably the program you use to write with. Do you write it on your computer first, then copy and paste it into their text editor? Some text editors (Win XP's notepad, for instance) make a mess when you copy and paste because the word wrap is weird. Try copying with the word wrap off. AC's text editor will wrap the text for you.

Thanks. I'll try that. I usually write it in Word. Once when I wrote it directly on AC without copying it, the whole thing disappeared and I had to start from scratch.

I hope it works for you. A plain text editor is best to copy and paste from. I never use an online text editor for writing - anything can happen,as you discovered. :)
