Nice that I found your blog after our bounce exchange today. I may start one soon.

I'd love to unscramble my thoughts about POD, and the right route to go for my over 50 chick lit novel. I think I've settled on a publisher, but at the moment, it's in the hands of a traditional small press (a month or more now), and haven't heard anything.

So maybe no news is good news.

Thanks for not interrupting my list for the bouncing email.

Oh - yes. I'm familiar with Heaven, too. Lived in Coos Bay for 2 years, then went to south Florida. You know what they say about what runs downhill?

Well, we came north, and it isn't much better, but can't seem to get out of here.

Have a lovely evening. If you have thoughts about POD, advice on who does it best (for a good price), maybe you can put it in print.

I'm facing time. At 64 I'm impatient. I'd love to get this in print, even if I have to do it myself. My other book, Waltz on the Wild Side - An Animal Lover's Journal, was taken by a small press who did nothing to help me promote.
Nothing. So I had to sell it myself. Not one cent on royalties.
I got an advance. I knew I had a lot of marketing to do, but was disappointed. But not disillusioned.

May
