Authonomy

I've been doing housecleaning tasks (writerly ones) and updated my stuff at BU, checked the Webboard at Baen's, formatted a couple of stories for Anthology Builder, and prepped a query.

And I spent some time looking over Authonomy. This is Harper Collin's equivalent of an open slush pile.

Has anyone tried this out? Any thoughts?

I have yet to read through the FAQs, so I'm not certain of all the conditions. I don't know what the ratios are for different types of reading. I'll jsut have to wait and see, I suspect.

I did read the FAQ. It seems like a kind of forum-y interactive place, but with the editors of Harper Collins swooping in and reading and commenting on your stuff at some point, too. Reading [livejournal.com profile] markalders experiences was useful, too.

Well, that doesn't sound good...
