I think I may have found a workaround to post at gatchfanfic.
I tested posting an episode review I wrote last spring. When I pasted the text into the editor, I got the 403 error. BUT, when I uploaded the story as a text file (*.txt), I did not get the error and I was able to preview and post.
I did find that if you upload and hit preview, the text from your file will fill in the editor. If you just hit submit, you will get the error. But, if you delete the text from the editor, re-upload the text file, and hit submit, I was able to post.
As I type this, I have to leave for class, but if someone else wants to try this let me know how it works. I'm not a total code/tech person, but I have a suspicion that the issues have to do with the TinyMCE text editor.
If you write in MS Word, you can save the file as a .txt file. I saved it as both .docx and .txt.
Edit: I uploaded a second ep review I'd posted earlier this year and I was able to upload and post it with no problems. I had a little more time when I did the second one (as it was after class), and there is one downside to uploading it this way: if you've formatted your text with italics, bold, etc., the formatting will be lost. This might be something you may want to consider before you post there.
