Most Common Reasons for Rejecting Excellent Manuscripts

Many freelance writers urge that endurance develops skill and talent rather than encouragement, or at least, 70 percent persistence and 30 percent inspiration.
Sometimes, the acceptance of a manuscript or an article looks like a question of the editorial accident and not a circumstance of clever salesmanship. Let’s imagine you have written an outstanding story and sent it to an editor. A variety of factors occurs during the rejection or acceptance of manuscripts.
If I am talking about my personal experience as an author, I really find it insulting when submitted my manuscript without paying attention to the publisher’s guidelines and I am definitely sure that most authors or writers do the same way.
You need to be very careful about grammar, titles, subtitles, headings, tables, spacing, paragraphs, spelling, etc.
Today, what I am about to share with you those reasons for most often reject manuscripts. So here are the major reasons-

Genre Issues

This could occur due to the problems of timing I’ve already discussed, but it could also be that the publisher or agent you’ve selected doesn’t work in that genre or can’t see a large enough return in its present audience.

The editorial mood is a regular variable

Many authors or writers think their script is outstanding and correspond with the reader’s feelings of the moment. At the next time, second reading might flawlessly replace the real feelings. On that basis, if an editor rejects your scripts, then continue to submit it to other editors, and then re-submit it to the editor who first had rejected it.

Timing

Usually, the reason for a publisher or agent is rejection has nothing to do with the quality of your writing – rather, it’s simply a case of bad timing. This can be especially frustrating, since your submission isn’t to blame and, short of infiltrating the publishing house, there is nothing you could have done.

Submission Errors

Of course, even if your timing is good, you’ve been savvy about the genre, and your manuscript is top-notch, if your submission is poorly put together, you won’t get anywhere. There are lots of Dos and Don’ts when it comes to communicating with literary agents and publishing houses, some better known than others, but the most essential thing is that agents and publishers are always searching for reasons to reject your articles or script.
So, be aware of these common reasons for rejection and the publishers Looking for submissions do send your scripts at https://www.rumourbooks.com/ (Rumour Book India’s) an official publisher of Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s ‘Mann Ki Baat’ book.
