It cost me $100 and was worth every penny. <br />I took my book and it's ready to be republished by an Riverhaven Books under another title and book cover. I want no connection to PA.<br />They refused over three locations wanting to distribute my book.<br />BEWARE! It may be "FREE" to go with them but it will cost you an arm and leg once you sign.Alberta Sequeirahttp://www.albertasequeira.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26753693.post-63448961932910308562008-08-25T11:26:00.000-04:002008-08-25T11:26:00.000-04:00Every little bit helps, far as I'm concerned!Every little bit helps, far as I'm concerned!Kimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06481162819559141780noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26753693.post-72717910564979769082008-08-19T20:31:00.000-04:002008-08-19T20:31:00.000-04:00Thanks for the link, Kim. :) Yes, why is "Publishe...Thanks for the link, Kim. :) Yes, why is "Published Author" capitalized? I'm sure none of the PA authors say that they are Graphic Designers or Retired Patent Lawyers. Besides, once the book is out, they're not so much Authors as they are Advertisers and Salespeople, unfortunately.<BR/><BR/>What made me sad was one of the replies to my article, where an ex-PA author said he had the same kind of box as Bob did - a box of unsold books and trodden-on dreams. And yet he's one of the lucky ones, since he knows the truth. How many authors out there blame themselves for their inability to break even, to keep promotion and sales up, to have a second book accepted by PA?<BR/><BR/>Here's to getting the word out!Marian Pererahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15700524210146863718noreply@blogger.com
