Your novel must be filled with drama and tension because you have yet to randomly select a dull passage.stephen Hayeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17659054447637207734noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3651058317830668643.post-27611789932673905702012-06-19T14:31:36.752-04:002012-06-19T14:31:36.752-04:00Well, yeah... it's really just like what Brian...Well, yeah... it's really just like what Briane was posting about the other day with Farenheit. Unless they plan to offer you some significant marketing support, you will just be paying them to take some of your money.<br /><br />Do you know what the penalties are for breaking the contract? Not that I'm suggesting that, because that would be bad, but it's a good thing to know.Andrew Leonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13964775673414653644noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3651058317830668643.post-33125477689769314852012-06-19T14:28:51.815-04:002012-06-19T14:28:51.815-04:00I have to look over the contract but I'm hopin...I have to look over the contract but I'm hoping just the first one. It's occurred to me I'd get about the same level of service if I just self-pubbed the rest. I mean me, Rusty, and Michael have pretty much done all the work on this one. All the "publisher" seems like they're going to do is collect a chunk of the profits.PT Dillowayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09394481476862013009noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3651058317830668643.post-45415936878384895202012-06-19T13:28:45.835-04:002012-06-19T13:28:45.835-04:00How many of the books in your series are under con...How many of the books in your series are under contract?Andrew Leonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13964775673414653644noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3651058317830668643.post-4759963564655769782012-06-19T12:22:16.437-04:002012-06-19T12:22:16.437-04:00Your extensive knowledge of French restaurants was...Your extensive knowledge of French restaurants was especially helpful.PT Dillowayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09394481476862013009noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3651058317830668643.post-6582679631517107202012-06-19T12:11:12.201-04:002012-06-19T12:11:12.201-04:00It kinda sounds like (from your comment on Rusty&#...It kinda sounds like (from your comment on Rusty's post) that your pub is dicking around with you.

I don't know why since she didn't really do anything the first time except to give me some generic advice and a style sheet. Incidentally it took two months and about five emails to extract that from her.<br /><br />Then making things more fun is that the person who ran the company sold it to some other people in April so now they're "upgrading" the company website and such.<br /><br />All of that to say I have no idea when it'll ever come out. I mean if it were up to me it'd be released right now. The manuscript is edited and as you know the cover is done so there seems no point fiddle-diddling around anymore. But that's not up to me.
