I recently came across the website of this publisher and was wondering if anyone's ever heard of them, or had dealings with them?
They seem to specialize in shorter forms (short stories and novellas) and in digital format only.
Pay seems reasonable... kinda.
What puzzles me is that it's a fixed rate ($2500) for novellas between 20,000 and 70,000 words.
So if it's 20k, that's really good pay (about 12c a word)... whereas for 70k, it gets much less interesting (about 3c).
I also find it odd that there isn't also, in addition to that, a percentage on sales...
Any thoughts, anyone?
