Sometimes they seem to get closer together than we'd like. Love ya for dropping in.<br /><br />Margaret,<br />The end of a novella isn't going to do me in. If she wants to hold it hostage, I'll let her. Of course, if she thinks I'm going to promote it and not warn people to read the fine print and compare to other contracts, then she's totally wrong. :)<br /><br /><br />Gabrielle...that saying bad things happen to good people must have been invented for a reason. :)<br /><br />Widder,<br />I love when you stop by. You always make me smile.<br /><br />thanks to all of you for coming by and letting me cry on your shoulders. Well, maybe not quite cry, but whine. :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09683064637626718318noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8915423025917785375.post-26506215356301831562012-03-09T08:29:42.774-08:002012-03-09T08:29:42.774-08:00Bad reviews suck, that's for sure ... still, i...Bad reviews suck, that's for sure ... still, it's just one person's POV ... and like you said, you're selling other stuff now so that proves you gotta be doing something right.<br /><br />I have that same clause in my contract too, although I believe it only applies if I want to get out of the contract early. (note to self - check out contract) I thought it odd as well, but 'oomins are nothing if not incomprehensible at times!widdershinshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04205462833259334647noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8915423025917785375.post-28150888264774955842012-03-09T05:49:32.543-08:002012-03-09T05:49:32.543-08:00It's always an awful feeling when you did the ...It's always an awful feeling when you did the right thing for the right reasons and are punished for it.

I personally think that it is sheer spite on the publisher's part. If your contract is up and you want to reclaim you rights, that should be the end of it. You get your rights back.<br /><br />Life wasn't meant to be easy as they say, and an authors lot certainly fits into that category.<br />Tomorrow is another day. With your humour and determination you will bounce back, that's for sure.<br /><br />Cheers<br /><br />MargaretMargaret Tannerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07123830410502520003noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8915423025917785375.post-47868182675393109562012-03-08T21:15:42.679-08:002012-03-08T21:15:42.679-08:00Well, Ginger, today "I" was the bird, th...Well, Ginger, today "I" was the bird, the bug, and, oh, road kill too!

Tomorrow is another day...and it can't be as bad as today! <br /><br />I'll be thinking 'bout you and wishing you all the very best.<br /><br />Hugs and smiles alwaysDawné Dominiquehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06190626068612071186noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8915423025917785375.post-34092688668642791082012-03-08T04:17:45.301-08:002012-03-08T04:17:45.301-08:00You have my sympathies, Ginger.
