Book Update: The Probability of Diamonds
"Even the most exquisite of diamonds does not shine in the dark." -M.K. Brown
Perhaps my previous post was a bit premature. While it was indeed true that I was offered a book deal for The Heart of the Graystone, I have decided to decline the offer. I should have done my homework BEFORE I submitted to this particular "publishing company".
I thought something was fishy when I received a notice of acceptance less than two weeks after submitting my manuscript, so I did some research, read all the literature on the company's website and compared it to the sample contract, and after a short period of soul-searching (a very short period, as it turns out) I felt it was in my best interests NOT to accept the company's offer.
I don't like being overly critical, especially in print, even though most of you know I do enjoy a good debate. So if anyone would like to see for themselves why I chose to pass up the (admittedly legitimate) offer to have my work published, just check out this link: http://www.ripoffreport.com/reports/0/104/ripoff0104646.htm
Thanks for all your encouragement anyway.
The road is long, with many a winding turn...we'll get there. We'll get there. (From: He Ain't Heavy, He's my Brother)
