Congrats on your new venture or should I say adventure? Some of the best ideas are those you just jump into with both feet. Enjoy your success!

Well, I'm worth my "burial" policy and my "pension".

All the time I was penniless, it irked me that I couldn't access my pension until I retired or died. Dying would've given satisfaction to too many people...

I, too, hope it goes smoothly. It'd be great if you could redeem your lost royalty payments as well without too much trouble.

Good luck!

Oops. Hope it isn't a messy process. I shudder about giving away rights; although, in some genres that is the only way to get published. I just don't have the energy to promote myself nor the money to pay an agent to do so.

"wonderfully written in spots" Do you know which spots?

The review may not be all you wanted but as you mentioned the reviewer was expecting something she didn't find.

I realize that labeling is important in marketing as mislabeling creates all kinds of probs. I try to be careful what I call my poetry after having been stung.

You are getting good reviews.

Hard to keep two story lines going. I felt lost at times in Robert Jordan's weighty tomes.

You've made being published a priority. Me? I still stumble about. At least, I'm still writing and blogging and driving myself nuts!

Charlotte, nice review.

Personally, I prefer reviews that have something to criticize because they feel more real and honest, and that was such a mild criticism.

What do you think of Mystic Moon press? I'm considering trying for small press along with my indie publishing but want one that will work with me on that and not be offended if I put it out in print while they have it in Ebook.
