Cammy May Hunnicutt replied to Cam Winstanley's discussion What now for book publishers?":-) I love it.
And sit on their samples for six months, then decide whether or not to respond at all?"
minervaK replied to Cam Winstanley's discussion What now for book publishers?"I've never understood why writers don't put freelance editors through the same rigorous weeding-out process they use on us. Submit some of your work. If it's perfect, I might hire you. I feel the same way about agents -- show me your…"
Cammy May Hunnicutt replied to Cam Winstanley's discussion What now for book publishers?"That would be Latent Self Pollution or something, wouldn't it?"
"Benjamin, I for one am fascinated by your UK sales. Mine are lousy.
As our contracts support the idea that we're paying publishers to do a good job, this also extends to promotion and marketing. Many trad. pubbed…"

Dana King replied to Cam Winstanley's discussion What now for book publishers?"John, what you're doing here is OK. The rules are against blatant self-promotion. This is more like insidious self-promotion.
Plus, this next isn't self-promotion: Anyone who isn't hip to the Saints of Hell through their…"
Cammy May Hunnicutt replied to Cam Winstanley's discussion What now for book publishers?"Au contraire.
I have a new one out, a "crime" book in the more general "crimes against humanity" sense.
Dueling DSP Desperados!
In grudge match with Saints from Hell for a big ol humongous belt!"
"The Saints of Hell are in all my books (I'm sorry, even I can't plug them again today).
