Great Old Ones Publishing

Hi,
does anyone have experience with Great Old Ones Publishing?
Considering whether to submit a story to one of their anthology calls, and would like to know what your experience has been with them. I couldn't find any posts on them, but they do look somewhat new.

Thank you.

Link, please?

As of this post, they have ten items up on Amazon. The current best-selling has a rank of just over 400K; everything else ranked between one and seven million - or no rank, meaning no Amazon sales since publication. Amazon isn't the only platform, but it's a fairly large one.

They seem to know what they are doing, and have been getting lots of good reviews. But as you say, they are new, and they also seem to offer only token payments on stories. The creepy-crawly antho call I saw from 2013 paid $25 per story.

That's what I'd found- new but they seem to have the basics down. Was more interested in if they had any complaints of non- or late payment, unprofessional behavior, etc.

Thanks for the link.

A cursory search shows nothing really bad. The low payment might be balanced by good reviews. Trouble is, I don't know enough about the horror genre to know if they have Name authors and as strong a rep as they seem. It might be worth subbing a story, just to see.
