Publishers can scam you too!
For a while I thought it was just agents that scammed authors by charging “reading” fees, etc. But I came accross a link on Simon Haynes’s web-site that pointed to a forum discussion on PublishAmerica. The discussion is 2 years old, though has some newer updates. Publishers like these are not called vanity publishers for nothing, but when they claim not to be a vaity publisher, that just makes it twice as bad.
If you want to see yourself in print, then fine. If you want to aim for the bestsellers lists, avoid.
For more dodgy publishers, see the Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers of America web-site… here.
