Forever Richard selling. Ho-hum.

I suppose I should be more excited about Forever Richard selling, (at least so I've noticed it moving up in ranking on Amazon.) So sad I make nothing off the sell of the book. What a wonderful job I have. I pour my heart and soul into something, also as much money as I can stand to lose and I make nothing back and neither does the original publisher of Forever Richard thanks to BookMasters or rather "the publishing industry." Wonderful. Good thing writing isn't what I depend on to make a living and even sadder that no one can make a living writing. Something's wrong with an industry when all you have are the writers who seem to spring out of nowhere to lavish their "gift" upon the world as though they were just waiting to be discovered. Meanwhile there are all those writers who have to have five REAL jobs just to do what should be considered a REAL job. So sad. :(

Looking forward to Black Bed Sheet Books republishing Forever Richard. I'd do it myself but just plain tired of pouring money into a bottomless hole. So yeah, buy Forever Richard and hope enough folks buy Never Ceese through Black Bed Sheet Books to bring me enough funds to pursue finishing Cyn No More.

  1. Sorry Sue. That sucks...

    When will you ever get the rights to the book back?

  2. Oh that publisher was wonderful!!! I've had the rights back for some time. Just don't feel like spending my families Christmas money on republishing it myself. Not that it costs that much but when the return on the investment is nominal, well, I do have to consider priorities. ;D

    And I KNOW you understand that!!!

    Love ya, Andrea.
