So, I got an e-mail back from the editor of Dark Wisdom today. He likes my story. However, he has asked if, rather than submit it to the magazine, I might consider instead submitting it for an anthology that he is editing calledHigh Seas Cthulhu. The book pays (only) twice yearly royalties. The magazine pays 250$ upfront.
I am tempted to go for the book, but I have no idea about any of this publishing stuff, and I don't know how much it would even be - like 20$ twice a year or something?
Any advice? 250$ right now would be nice, but a: I don't think it would be 'right now' and b: it isn't going to make or break me.
However the fact that I just spent 70$ on fabric and patterns because the Hancocks fabrics here is having a going out of business store - that was probably not my best move :o
