Via Superchamp Books’ SB ReFresh™ program, we acquire previously published works for the purpose of republishing those works in the Blame The Critic Network and the larger Superchamp Books publishing ecosystem.
Republishing your pieces with Blame The Critic/Superchamp Books has a number of benefits. It gives you an instant Blame The Critic by-line, a searchable author profile, an author page, a new spotlight on your work, a new addition to your writing portfolio and CV, and a new payday.
Also, through your author profile, you will be able to add notes and commentary to your previously published pieces. Furthermore, you’ll benefit from additional professional editing/copyediting where needed.
