"Standard publication rates apply". Do not be
cheated. They expect to pay USD $800-3000 for a cover
photograph. Also, the terms are 30-60 days from
acceptance, not publication. Single use and copyright
remains yours. Insist on a byline somewhere (usually
on the table of contents page) preferably with a
thumbnail and url to your website.
Just use a standard "business like" response with the
above information and not much more. You might want
to refer to a book on stock photography or a
photographers business guide for exact wording. Don't
be afraid to take a stand and demand industry standard
rates and terms. Remember, they don't know you from
A. Adams.
