And some professionally published ones as well. (rimshot)

It's an interesting model. If you can package it right, market it broadly enough, and keep hold of high quality standards in the services you offer, it might make some money without becoming a scam. There are a lot of author wannabees out there with some money in their pocket.

A reviewing company to separate the wheat from the chaff might also make money if this comes to pass.
