I was just invited to submit an article I have written to a magazine 'on spec'. There seems to be some discrepancy on this site as to what 'on spec' actually means and what it entails.
Is the usual procedure to: submit the article, if they like it they pay you for it and perhaps publish it. They cannot take the article on spec and publish it without your knowing or your being paid for it, right?
Her reasoning for submitting on spec was that they haven't dealt with me before, and the article is written in first person.
