That makes sense. On the other hand, it's not just the multiple submissions policies that bug me. It's the "if you put it on a blog, we consider it published and we don't want it". Some of my stories (like Schoolyard Bully) I really want to be able to be widely available, and shareable with whomever I want to share them with. So now I have to choose. Do I want to put it on my blog so that I can share it at will? Or do I want it to be published in a periodical, where maybe I can get paid for it (although it seems like most don't pay).
