An enduring problem with the Medium apps is the inability to submit to publications from some devices or, for that matter, to publish. I am surprised this problem has not yet been solved by Medium Staff.
Here’s my work-around:
- You, as the writer, publish your piece to directly Medium.
- Add a comment to your piece tagging me and saying you would like to submit your work to RP.
- Be sure you have your Medium settings set up to receive email from Medium because, after I see your tag, I will send you a response email with a link you can use to upload your poem to RP from your device.
The downside of this method is you are not submitting a draft, so the piece, when published, won’t have a simultaneous alert to both your followers and the publications followers.
I do my best to publish every day. So (unless I am on the road and can’t publish from my mobile — Grrrr!) there shouldn’t be a huge lag time in the above method.
Your other choice, if you don’t have access to a lap or desktop computer, is to go to a public library, log on to your Medium account and submit a draft from there.
