Does anyone have any experience working for this magazine? I have a friend who published a story with them and is chasing them for payment even though payment on acceptance terms were agreed in her contract.

Why that has to be with such a well-known and I'm sure rich publication is beyond me. They never called me back either, but when I called Accounts Payable, I got the checks shortly after.

In the last year or so, I had a lot of trouble getting paid by Woman's World. They have never asked me to submit an invoice, and almost all publications request an invoice first before the writer sends it in. Even on a bigger story I had with Woman's World several years ago, I wasn't asked for an invoice.
Also, some magazine get annoyed if you call their Accounting Dept. directly. I know, it's happened to me once or twice when I wasn't aware that that could happen. There is at least one other writer here at AW that had trouble with getting paid by Woman's World. There is a thread about it.
I'm just going by my experience and what helped me get paid might hopefully help others. Sure appreciate your information, though.
