Do You Have to Meet Dead Lines to Do an Anthology?

You have to meet your dead lines, and you have to read the contract. Read that contract first before you do anything. And if they don't have a contract, ask them why? Not really important because there are horror stories of people who didn't get their rights back or couldn't get their story published under another name. So If dead lines cause you great agita and ax and trouble, either write the story first and then ask if youno offer it to an anthology,. Don't drop out at the last minute, i mendo, because you'll get the reputationd do that about twice. I put things in my contract that are meant to be fair for both us.
