Prairie Fire buys First North American Serial Rights
Only. Rights are reassigned to the author upon publication. Payment is
made following publication and includes one (1) free contributor's copy.
The term "page" refers to published page. We reserve the right to pay

page if 23 lines or less; for 1/4 page if 12 lines or less. "Kill fee"
for material accepted in writing but subsequently not used is $25-$50.
We reserve the right to refuse payment for work which proves to have been
previously published elsewhere, or which turns out to have been plagiarized.
Commissioned writing and anything not covered by this rate sheet will
be negotiated on an individual basis. These rates are subject to change
without notice. (Electronic rates will be negotiated separately.)
