Nice that they fixed it up...most publisher's dump it right back in your lap
if they have to do too much work to fix it...

Sorry Katy but everything Ive ever sumitted to publishers they do not
ask any questions beside how much do I want for the rights to publish.
The only problem is sometimes they fix to much and I have to refuse
thier money until they fix it the way I like it. If you have good
stories that will make them lots of money they will buy. Hemmingway was
a bad speller as well, but he put his gut and soul into the stories he
told and thats all that matters.

The optimal word there was "rights"...they buy the right to your
article..once the money is accepted, you no longer have any power over the
piece and it is theirs...by reprinting without their permission you are
infringing their copyright of your article...

Dear Katy,

The optimal word is First right to publish ect. Not EXCLUSIVE rights
to publish. But thank you for your concerns.

Sheeeeze Katy, I can read a contract and can understand the diffrence
of Exclusive rights and First rights to publish. Exclusive on a short
story is worth 10 times what right to publish is worth.
Man O man O man.
