‘Samantha Bond has reviewed issue one of Kill Your Darlings for The Independent Weekly. You can read why she thinks it ‘lives up to its editorial hype’ here.
Sadly however, it appears that you don’t pay your writers. Nothing in the submission section about money. Don’t really see why I should submit anything or support it by subscribing.
On behalf of the editorial team: We do in fact pay our writers. All writers for issue 1 received $120 per piece (apart from the authors of the short reviews, who received a smaller sum) – not a large amount, but substantial when you consider that the project is self-funded, with no government support. We hope to pay higher fees in future, if our income allows.
