    When I have some time* I often submit automotive tech stories, as AC, and I usually take the time to edit them into something that I think is close to ready for the front page. Often the stories are found in automotive trade mags, which I read for work. I'll guess my acceptance rate is about 50%, not complaining about that at all.

    I would like to know if "Mobile" is the correct topic? Or should I just use "News".

    *Spring is busy for me: as well as work, there are lots of house-related things that get done now so my subs have slowed down for the last weeks.

      You can use either topic - although you can only select one for your submission then we can allocate several topics to a story.
