Oh man, I wonder if they'd take something I've written. That'd be crazy exciting.

Well, there's only one way to find out, isn't there?

Never used Dwarf Therapist, mods or tilesets in all the years I've been playing.
I think Toady's confusing interface better simulates the experience of a bunch of disorganised drunken dwarves running a fort.

Yea, I'm thinking of it too. Would be, as said before, exciting.

It might be interesting to submit one of my stories. I'unno, I'll think about it. On the one hand, $$$ and faaaame, on the other hand I'd have to do stuff involving banks. If my story was even accepted.

Oh, right. Well, we get 5% of the cover price per issue sold for the first three months for the first publication, with right to republish in an anthology with " all best efforts made to re-establish contact with the author in order to furnish with additional royalties." It's not a lot, but they're a brand new 'zine and haven't really got established yet.

Not bad either, though; I know someone tried to get me to submit to an e-zine whose pay rate was a flat $5 per story. Great if that one would take flash fiction, but longer stories would be... a rip. 5%, on the other hand, seems reasonably decent in comparison. It's no $0.05 per word, but it could be much worse.

Huh. This actually looks like the kind of fiction I like to read. Congrats on getting published though!
