God above, how many times have seen this same business model (unnecessary comma and all)?
We are unique.
We give the author the freedom of self-publishing, while providing contractors who are willing to work on a percentage of perceived income, so that an independent author has the ability to produce quality product on the same standards as the top publishers, even if they do not have a disposable income to pay for such services in advance.
This is a "run fast, run far" nightmare of a "business."
People will submit, though, if they ever slap up a WYSIWYG Geocities-style eyesore of a website to take them, just to say they've been "published."
