Like many writers, during my early years, I worked for nothing. One magazine grew from a start-up to a high end publication that sold for almost 3 million dollars. I did not get a raise when new management took over; nor did I ask. I was happy to be kept on as a freelancer.

A recent business experience led me on a search for stories about fighting the good fight against those who know most writers have little recourse except to take what they dish out.

If you have a story to tell, or know a writer who does, tell us about it in the comments. Or if you’d like to remain anonymous, please get in touch. We may be able to use your story in an upcoming muse-letter.
