Payment: There is no payment unless we actually make a profit from the books which so far has not happened. If it did, there would be royalties. We are a new small press. But authors can buy the books at cost and sell them at a higher price which actually can be more than royalties when there are multiple authors involved. (and of course, this also keeps us from making a profit. Amazon.com and other retailers also take a big percentage of the price so being small we are often lucky to break even.) But profit is not our purpose at this time. We do not yet have a website but are planning to have one soon. All information can be obtained through this email address. Many of our authors are college professors who can use the publication for promotion. I am hoping that I get a few responses to fill out the anthology which is coming together but is only half the size we hoped.
