A Call For Submissions At The Long and the Short of It

I don't know if this call for submissoins will be of interest to anyone since it's non-paying, but I thought I'd post it anyway. For those of you who aren't familiar with The Long and the Short of It (like me), this is a reviewers site. The following blurb is from thier website:
The Long and the Short of It hopes to contribute to the Romantic Fiction world in a positive way. Our philosophy is: If you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. You'll only find positive reviews on our reviews blog. This doesn't mean we like everything we read -- far from it. What it does mean is, we only post reviews of those books we like. There are enough reviews sites and various blogs that are "snarky" or negative. We do not choose to be one of them. Our policy: If we have a book or story submitted to us for review, and the first reviewer doesn't like it, it is reassigned to another reviewer. If that reviewer doesn't like it, it is forwarded to one of the owners of this site. If we agree with their assessment, an email will be sent to the author, declining to review their story. We strive to be both honest and positive and hope that this resonates with you. To request a review, please click here.
They have a small article archive, and if you sign up for their newsletter, you''re automatically entered for their weekly contest plus a drawing for a $5 Amazon gift certificate. It looks like a fun site. If you want to check it out, you can do so by clicking here or on one of the links below.
The Long and the Short of It is issuing a call for romantic short stories (1000 words maximum). To read our guidelines, go here . At the moment, we are non-paying, however we do offer as compensation for using your story one free month banner or book cover ad (a $10 value) or $10 off our Author Spotlight on the front page of our site (a week-long focus on you and your work). Thank you and we're looking forward to reading your stories.
