This might be more appropriate for another forum, if so please move, but its more about whether other AW members think is this is a reasonable deal. From Cerriowen Press’s website: “Length of grant of publishing rights: full term of copyright.”
I guess that means that if they take your work, you kiss it goodbye and wipe away tears as the train pulls out of the station.
Cerriowen is the new mainstream division of Ellora’s Cave. Ellora seems to be top of the heap in E-publishing, and, with their high sales, etc, I can see how that contract term wouldn’t be a major issue in the dark recesses of her Cave. But how about mainstream Cerriowen? Does it sit well with you? I suppose that if they do, in fact, publish your book, you can reasonably expect better publicity and sales than you’d get from many other e-publishers. But other than those checks in the mail, you and your loved one would never see each other again.
