They'd have to check their contracts with their publishing house. Mine tell me I can't upload anything until they've had exclusive use of it for three months. And, when that period is expired, I can only upload my original material, not what they ended up publishing.
Mind you, that last bit suits me fine.
Publishers pay for copy, so the terms are quite understandable.
The annoying aspect of working for publishers, as opposed to blogging, is that material sometimes doesn't get published for a couple of months.
