Halloween Trivia (Unauthorized reprint)

Mr. & Ms., October 2005
On the cover: KC Montero and Geneva Cruz

This is a reprint of my article of the same title, “Halloween Trivia,” published in Mr. & Ms. November 3, 1998 issue. Ethically and legally, I should have been paid for this article even if it’s a reprint. When you submit an article to a publication, what they are paying you are the right to publish your article, not the ownership of the article. So, without the author’s permission, the publisher cannot reprint. They reprinted this without my permission and didn’t pay me for it.
