I crossposted, so that last paragraph is a bit behind the times. That is the kind of stories that need to be told in order to gather up support for the fees rendered (about the book leading to more serious looks into other magazines). I'm not saying that Rosity's book won't be accepted and the artists won't get commissions. I'm not even saying that the fee won't be worth the risk, but you have to show that. From a purely business marketing point of view, if you plan to charge more than more respected places, you have the burden of justifying the benefits of doing so. Rosity has not done a good job of making that case
