Has anyone dealt with this press before? It seems to be run by a PhD theologian, or minister, or pastor, archbishop when they're done...
Their published books seem to run in the millions as far as amazon rankings go.
What I'm asking about is their call for short horror stories, for an anthology.
http://www.apocryphile.org/short.html
101 short horror stories of 1000 words or less. The link at the bottom of the page goes to a 404 error message. Maybe they don't want participants to know they're a religious publisher?
And here they stipulate:
AGREEMENT
Writers selected for this anthology will receive one (1) copy of the published book, and the ability to purchase 10 or more copies at a reduced “author’s” rate of 50% of the cover price for as long as the book is in print. No further compensation will be forthcoming.
---------------------
If you don't have the ability to purchase 10 or more copies, etc., does that hamper your acceptance? Is this a fleece, or is it good intentioned?
