Is anyone familiar with this UK based site? Are they on the up and up?  _________________ "In the end we will remember not the words of our enemies:but the silence of our friends"...

I've heard that most of the stuff they publish is of very poor quality . I've also heard that they may be a vanity publisher, like poetry dot com. Don't take my word for it.

The reason I ask is that they contacted a poet friend of mine and asked to be allowed to use one of his poems.He has never submitted to them and is in New Zealand and had never heard of them before.Thanks for the info.  _________________ "In the end we will remember not the words of our enemies:but the silence of our friends"...
