Compensation

The Skrews Syndication, while for-profit, serves a primary function of providing a medium for artists to collectively promote their art and aggrandize their portfolios. The Publisher will offer a copy of the published medium, in most cases digital, featuring your work within a month of distribution. For digital distribution, this will usually occur within a weeks time of release. If profits ever exceed operational expenses, The Skrews Syndication will establish a profit share to further compensate published Poets and will revise this document accordingly.

The Publisher may contact you for further editing after the Work has been consented and reserves the right to reject Work at any point prior to publication. Furthermore, the Publisher reserves the right to adjust line-breaks, punctuation, and capitalization, now or in the future and without notice to enhance the digital or physical presentation.
