Thank you for recognizing the tremendous effort that goes into writing and self publishing. Thank you for your kind words and most of all thank you for admitting that the reader has the last word, always. Thank you for looking back and analyzing the mistakes of the past when many excellent writers were turned down under pre-conceived notions as to what is "sellable." A prime example is Paul Harding, pulitzer prize winner of "Tinkers" who was turned down by every major publishing house, finally finding a home with an obscure little house such as, "Bellevue Literary Press." I always found traditional publishing to be a closed fortress, but a new world opened up to us when e-books came into the picture, and guess what? The literary houses may come calling some day anyway.Beatrice Brusic - Author of Beyond the Snows of the Andes, A Different Journey, Jill and Mickey, Six Months of Wonderful, The Dark Path of Julie E.https://www.blogger.com/profile/12781951445470720764noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3570843285923755385.post-16389750787958560402011-03-04T08:39:36.671-05:002011-03-04T08:39:36.671-05:00How fun!
