Interesting editorial comment in thesubmissions policies from Nanobison, a science fiction/fantasy/horror ‘zine:
“Warning: bodice ripper stories may be returned to the submitter along with an invoice for editorial pain and suffering.”
Sounds like a great money-making scheme to me; just think how much you could charge for “editorial pain and suffering” if you were editing a poetry ‘zine.
I’m sure you know that this “charge a fee” comment was totally ‘tongue in cheek’. We do accept poetry submissions, too, though I must admit my own eye for poetry is a very cynical orb. If I were to charge for editorial pain and suffering overall, though, the fees would be rarely charged and mostly very very small. 🙂

Doug, I have to say that I’ve never heard a name I like better than “nanobison.” It’s just neat.
You must be a patient man if you’d only charge a little bit!
