Thought I should start a thread on this bunch, as they left an ad and a link on a different board, clearly trolling for customers.
They aren't on Editors and Preditors yet.

The trolling was worded in such a way as to make it seem like paying to publish is how it is done, and that annoyed me.
I just want it clarified for any writer doing their homework with a Google search that Halo Publishing is self-publishing, not a commercial publisher who can pay a writer an advance check.
Anyone with doubts--they have a testimonials page. No vanity site goes without one of those.
They have a wildly overpriced "Media Press Kit" at $1599.00.
Unless you'd like 250 2X6 bookmarks for 89.00? (Printrunner does the same size and number for only 38.66.)
Or 250 4x6 postcards for 140.00? (Printrunner does the same for 35.96.)
If that's how they gouge people for advertising stuff I'd hate to know what the price is for printing the books.
I tried to find pricing info. If it was there, it wasn't terribly obvious.
