A tad ticked

Ticked at the FW paper that lists subsidy press publications along with legitimate press publication. For those who try to write and get published through regular channels have a rough time of it as is. Then they ran a release for "new authors" which should have been an add instead of an announcement. Pity the writers who show up and find they have to pay to get in print. And yes, I've heard of Thoreau and Grisham and all the other "successful" self-publishers, but that doesn't make it any less than a scam. Warn writers of these places before they end up in POD hell.

  1. KUDOS; and write the FW papers, let them now, make them do a retraction! Make them tell the truth! I'll help you if you tell me the date of the paper, the page it appeared on, and so forth. Let us ban together to fight the injustice done to writers!
