Mistakes Greeting Card Writers Make Part 7



7. Haven't Read Guidelines

Most greeting card submissions are rejected for a very simple,
avoidable reason: The writer did not read the guidelines. For
example, some guidelines state that all card verse must be submitted
on index cards and be under twenty words. If you submit a lengthy
poem on a sheet of paper, this shows the publisher you have not taken
the time to request and read the guidelines.
