book competitions, and I
read the * entire *
book in every case, despite the fact that the honorarium has never been more than $ 12 per
book — a figure that works out to less than $.50 per hour of my time spent
reading and commenting In spite of all this, you still come here and elsewhere to insinuate I'm greedy and only out to take advantage of my fellow authors.
