Posting here, though this happened on threads, in case they are here or come here. Star Literature Publishers is a scam, allegedly (there is one that does seem legit with a very similar name, though I have no experience with them, so PLEASE double check who it is before shining your pitchfork).

Behold The Scribble Witch and one of her 'Inklings'-a familiar conjured from her magical inks. The mascot of Glitter & Gloom

An anime style witch woman in mostly purple clothing, wearing a feather boa and witch hat. She has magic inks flowing from her hands as she steps out of a portal with a small octopus holding a paintbrush. There's a large magic circle that has the Procreate art program icon, a tablet with an apple core on it, and a stylus.

You get money from a book you published on a date you can't predict. it will be a sum you can't predict. you will never know if the ranch is saved or not. Everyone makes interest off your royalties before you do, and you're probably not making *any* interest at all And you don't have dental.
