Arsenal Pulp Press sends contract I reject it and mail it back the Cheap $50 dollar contract Expresspost

Well around noon today I received two copies of the gay anthology “Seminal” and a contract from Arsenal Pulp Press. And sure enough the contract had a lot of ludicrious and very unprofessional clauses. First, I thank god that I bought the Writer’s Union of Canada’s book on Anthology Contracts and Rates. Arsenal Pulp Press unprofessionalism to dupe me to accept $50 dollars for my poem is bullshit. Arsenal Pulp Press also wanted to have my poem republished in later editions. I DECLINED. I rejected it because its a matter of prinicple. I made sure of course that I photocopied the whack contract. And I mailed the two copies of Seminal, the horrible contract unsigned Expresspost. I refused the contract because I know Arsenal Pulp Press are unprofessional. Its really insincere that they feel they can dupe me out of my rightful compensation. I never signed the contract there is NO AGREEMENT. According to the Writer’s Union of Canada’s guidelines I can ask the publisher between $500 to $2000 dollars. And that’s exactly what I did. I cannot believe Arsenal Pulp Press.  It is really deleterious what they are doing. And I have to say to all those other writers that may be reading this post. I strongly suggest go to WWW.WRITERSUNION.CA  and please read about your RIGHTS. DO NOT accept ANYTHING FROM A PUBLISHER THAT YOU FEEL IS WRONG OR UNJUST. And that’s exactly what I did. I even sent back the two books expresspost because I am disgusted with Arsenal Pulp Press. My conscience is clear I am glad I was able to compose my letter to Arsenal Pulp Press and let them know they are unfair, cheap and wrong. As I wrote in my letter let me be blunt $50 dollars for my poem is cheap and then they want me to grant them additonal rights to publish my work in future publications absolutely not!!
