If you've queried a publisher or literary agent and they say they want to acquire your book, but that there's a small editing fee or publishing fee... RUN.
That's 100% a scam.

If you're a traditionally published author with an agent or publisher - YOU PAY NOTHING.
Money flows to you, not away from you.
