I kind of asked this in another DS thread but maybe it I'll have better luck starting my own thread.
I was rejected by DS when I applied about a month ago. I submitted a rather long research paper (maybe 1500 words or so) from a sociology class I am taking at my university as my sample to DS.
They told me they weren't looking for my type of writing (or something along those lines) in their email.
Are they looking for more seo type of stuff? I've done quite a bit of that since I've started freelancing. Or what kind of content articles are they looking for?
I checked out a contributing editor on ehow (someone on here mentioned that the contributing editors articles are the ones that come from ds writers) and, to tell you the truth, they seem very long. For instance, the Ehow of the Day today is How to Survive a Scandal and it is 899 words long. Is that the typical length of a ds article submission?
I would really like to write for ds. It will help me reach my goals for 2010 and, I hope, eventually make it possible to focus on my other writings.
Could someone please give me some pointers on what they are looking for? Please help a newbie out!
