| I do. Or did. My contract was terminated over the weekend and I've sold my book to another publisher. Details pending. |

| I had four offers ranging from enthusiastic amateurs to pretty well known ePubs. I decided on the latter. |

| Let me correct. I have four offers. I have picked one but it isn't a done deal yet.

| I am suprised. I thought you liked printed books and bookstores. Do you get large advances or what? |

| Any publisher that fails is a loss to all authors. |

| I love bookstores and printed books. But I also know novellas are a pretty hard sell in those venues so that's that.
Do I get large advances? I get compensated fairly considering the size of the work and the venue it's appearing in. |
