My least favorite submission calls include:
Send us your best, Ray Bradbury-level stories for our next issue! We're not joking; we want super-polished, edited, and finished work or we delete it unread. Do not test us!
This publication does not pay at this time.

Look at this fucking gem: What this festival does is give the writer exposure.
This is from a call that charges a $50 submission fee.

So, I'm a writer, too. I was looking around and finding there are publications out there who use Submittable, charge fucking reading fees, but also DON'T PAY CONTRIBUTORS! Any publication can afford to pay something, even $1, they just choose not to.

This may not be every artists take but I’m so much more willing to work with someone who sees my value and is willing to look for a solution, even if it’s not ideal. Other artists - Do you agree?
