hmm... interesting thought. can i hold the book hostage until someone pays me?
This is the place where a smart guy would shut up and wait for a fan to offer, but, I've never been that smart. |

scarlet, I'm shocked. A mercenary in our midst.  (I think what you should do is ask for the weight of the paperback in chocolate... gotta be at least a pound.  ) |

(I think what you should do is ask for the weight of the paperback in chocolate... gotta be at least a pound. ) okay, okay, just to clear the air.... the hostage taking of the MS is a JOKE. as soon as i'm done, Jeff will be getting the edits and what he does then is up to him... so, Jeff, GT, put away your credit cards... unless of course you REALLY wanna help me pay for my new kindle case... |

hey wait. You're not supposed to be speed-reading this MS, you're supposed to be doing the first proofreading pass. |

So you're saying you leave two or three typos for me to find just so I feel useful? |

Yay team! This one just might be in print before spring. So you're saying you leave two or three typos for me to find just so I feel useful? We're a team. I write copious amount of unpublishable text, Scarlet reads it for continuity issues, plot holes and she curbs my natural tendency to talk over everyone's heads, and then you cleanup the typos, the etymology blunders and the factual errors that Scarlet and I missed. and you have to catch the stuff post my suggested changes...
Hey! I send you every change. |
