Brand new (opened May 2012). No books yet released.

The magazine, which is a paying market, lists Richard Flores IV as the editor-in-chief; his credentials appear to be limited to planning to self-publish his own book. I couldn't find any info on the staff for the book side of the press, or their industry creds.

The webpage has all the phrases I dread:
"Offers an opportunity for authors to get the recognition they deserve."
"Founded by writers for the benefit of writers."
They also intimate that their contract is non-negotiable.

How did you find them, V Rose?

Ah, clever you!

I reckon they fall into the category of 'wait and see.'

Random thread intrusion: I misread the title of this thread as "Spasma Plyglass Press" and all I could think is why the hell would anyone want to publish with a company with a name like that?!
