How We Partnered With Another Publishing Company To Grow Our Business

Hello again! Remind us who you are and what business you started.
Hi! Great to talk with you again. My name is Joe Stech (rhymes with tech), and I publish high-quality science fiction short stories on Compelling Science Fiction. I started the site because I love plausible science fiction, and I wanted to support the creation of those kinds of stories. The wonderful community of people who read compellingsciencefiction.com is looking for the same thing -- thought-provoking stories with self-consistent worlds and unique premises.
Compelling science fiction has about the same number of readers and revenue (~$1500/issue) as it did the last time we talked, but it's been a bit of a roller-coaster ride, with the magazine actually shutting down at one point.
