    Unfortunately your posts did not meet our quality requirements. However, you will be permitted a second chance.

    There were two primary issues with your writing that need to be worked on.

    Consider the above examples.

    The first problem is that many of your posts were very short. Your posts should always include at least 3 to 4 sentences long. The longer, the better.

    The second problem is that you do not have good capitalization. The first letter in each new sentence should be capitalized. For example...

    Correct: I like any kind of art...

    Incorrect: i like any kind of art...

    If you wish to take your second chance at becoming a writer then make 10 more posts and include more content as well as proper capitalization like I mentioned.

    Good luck. :)

    I am glad I tend to be conscientious when it comes to punctuation and grammar. At least I try not to allow things like 'i's dent my writing. I am by no means a perfect writer, but I always try to be one whenever I put words on paper or screen. I have come to realize that everything I do as a writer, or more accurately put, an aspiring writer, will either speak for or against me. It is tough to stand out today as everyone now has the ability to showcase their writing ability to the world from the comfort of their home. It is likely that poor work will drown in the sea of quality content and never have a chance to be considered.
