Science fiction, fantasy and horror bloggers in Italy have just been told by a local publisher

some of your stuff is very good… not good enough for us to pay it, but certainly good enough for us to publish it

As someone that is trying to make a living out of writing, I find such offers plain offensive.
And I would have written a good post on the subject… but then I remembered Wil Wheaton already said it all.
