I've emailed and called the editor (who I'm told is in charge of payment) and have heard nothing back. Anybody else have similar problems lately? |

| pamelabeth | Posted – 1/4/2008 1:16:42 PM | show profile actually... i wrote for them and it was a pretty good experience. i enjoyed working on the piece and generally liked the way it turned out. (and no, i'm not on staff there! : ) ) they paid on publication, rather than on acceptance; and of course it was a few months from when the piece was accepted to when it was published. but when the issue did come out, i got my check in reasonable time. i love "plenty" and want to see them succeed. i haven't seen the posts in which "folks have had a lot of problems" with them but hope they can do well. |
| prairiedog | Posted – 1/4/2008 1:23:48 PM | show profile Plenty Glad to hear they aren't always sloppy. I've been waiting 2 months since publication, by the way. (It was a web piece; maybe they are slower with those.) |
