Thank you! I wish you great success with your writing, too.

Thank you! I'm so glad you found it helpful!

I'm glad your anthology is addressing your copyright properly. It's always nice to hear about the successful ones (particularly because the ones that come to my office after the fact are usually the ones that have problems, for obvious reasons). Thank you for sharing your experience.

The answer is: "it depends on the terms of the contract." If you can't find the contract, you should contact the group or organization that published the anthology and ask for a copy, so you can check the terms and confirm that you can now submit elsewhere.

Excellent - and good luck with your anthology!

If all the work is your own, you still need to be aware of the terms of use that the publisher or website gives you--that's your contract. The Createspace terms of use are the contract in your situation.

Thanks Laura! (I'm a little late with comments this week...it's been a rough one). I'm in absolute agreement with you about the abuse, too--but fortunately, people can avoid the pitfalls by knowing what to look for.
