Good luck in getting your stuff published in Start. If it does by some
miracle, you will not get paid for it. As far as I have been able to tell,
they have not been paying authors for a long time (including me). Start is
going down real fast. They are not getting any advertising money - advertisers
are staying away in droves. I actually heard recently they've been running
some ads *for free* just to try and keep things alive. Bob Brodie is doing
his new column for free. A great pity, Start's kinda all there is left
in terms of mainstream Atari magazines in North America.
