"It's a journal from Summercat! And he writes:"
Hello all!
This is just a general infopage for both magazines.
Anthroview: Anthropomorphics Review is an approximately quarterly magazine that has reviews, previews, and articles related to things in the furry fandom - On Furries, By Furries, For Furries. Comics, art, stories, books - reviews on everything, plus serialized short stories and artwork.
Tales from the Neon Phoenix is an adult story and art magazine, meant to be more of a 'Slice of Life' style of magazine, all stories being told by patrons of the multi-universe transdimensional (A location that exists everywhere and everywhen) 'Neon Phoenix' - which can appear as a bar, dance club, pub, tavern, cave... The location and setting of the Neon Phoenix doesn't matter - it is simply a vehicle to tell tales and stories. Adult ones. Sexy ones.
Both magazines are generally estimated to be at 100 pages each, with full-color covers - and possibly inserts.
Art prices are negotiable, with stories and articles priced at a half-penny a word, USD. 500 words would be $2.50. What exactly is being sold?
* Right of First Post, up to 6 months. This means that I (well, once I get my company running, the company) gets to publish the article, story, or artwork first. This hold expires if the article has not been published after 6 months.
* Right of Temporary Sole Post, up to 3 months. For three months after being published, the only source of the article, story, or artwork is the magazine it is published in. After three months, this hold expires.
* Right to Sell in Original Setting. I have the right to sell the articles, stories, and artwork in the magazine they were originally published in, indefinately - but ONLY as part of the whole magazine it was published in. I can not, under this contract, take portions from multiple magazines and merge them into a single compilation - that would be a seperate contract (and payment).
All three items are negotiable, and not set in stone - these are the base offer that I start with, and unless there are any objections, would be going with. As of right now, this is a verbal contract - but I'm putting my reputation up as collateral.

Other Items -
Anthroview is rated PG-13, max. General audience acceptable, no adult/sexual material. You may review adult material in Anthroview, but you can't get too descriptive of them.
Tales from the Neon Phoenix is so adult it would make a nun dance on a pole in lingerie.
If you are interested in placing advertisements... due to the size of the magazines (8.5x5.5, Portrait), I feel I can only sell full page ads in good faith. I'm currently thinking about 5 pages of advertisements, max, at $10 each - first come, first serve.
Contact for either magazine is through FA or my email, bengaley.summercat[at]gmail.com
Payment is currently through check, only - they are sent electronically with a confirmation number from Wells Fargo, so you will be able to see/confirm that the check is in the mail. I am looking into other payment options, but would need a partner to handle Paypal due to Paypal issues. I can also work through Moneybrokers and Alertpay, as well as Google.
If you have any general questions, let me know and I will do my best to answer them.

Deadline is April 9th now. There is no theme set for either magazine (aside from ratings, obviously), and the Bar/Building Neon Phoenix is a metaphorical representation of the magazine and does not have to appear in the story.
And yeah, it's a fanzine - but it does count, since you're being paid to write for it.
I want to see about ~4000 words for installments. If your story comes out to 8000 words, then we can break it up across two issues.
I like that.
Good to see that the rough limits of 1000-4000 words are delineated. I forgot to ask that earlier.
Beyond that, you can sell it to anyone else, or sell it yourself.
I've been writing for 9 years now and I'd like to get some of my stuff more out there.
I'd probably be writing for the 'Tales from the Neon Phoenix', but I can also take a swing at the Anthroview... I'm open to anything you can throw at me!
Here I can send you an example of what I can do through email... is that what you'd like?
I'll await for your response before doing anything...
-RRR
thanks, I'll send something soon.
-RRR
GO UNCLE SAAAAAAAM!
In any case best of luck with the project!
My band has 3 albums to choose from if you'd be interested.
(http://lookleft.us/)
I might -but not promising anything- I might review your stuff for Anthroviewer. I've always loved your music, heard it for a while now, so if I do do something for Anthroviewer, you'll be first on the list!
Keep pumpin' that stuff out bud!
-RRR
I've only heard a few from that album, but the ones I've heard have impressed! As well, YSDM seems to have a wider genre variety then Look Left (Though I liked a lot of songs in that one)! You also mentioned that you all got new, better, instruments to play with in YSDM... so ya, if I do this, it'd probably be targeting YSDM.
-RRR
Our BAND name is Look Left, the first one is "The College Years"
If you go to http://lookleft.us you can hear all 3 for free.
