But money at least partially correlates to prestige; you're better off making one sale to a known and respected market than four to dinky little places nobody's heard of. Which is not to say you shouldn't try the collection, since your story is directly on-topic for them -- but I wouldn't make a habit of bypassing the bigger places. (Apropos of my recent post.)

And don't get me started on having to revise these stupid things. I don't want to think about it any time soon.
