Had to share possible good news
As you may or may not know, for the past 6 months I have been working on my first book, editing the Civil War letters of a surgeon who enlisted near my home town. I sent my manuscript to four publishers, 3 of which said thanks but no thanks as they felt the market for that sort of thing was not big enough. Well today I received the following message from my last hope:
Hello Chris We have a quite favorable review from a reviewer. However, the market is very hard for this sort of book. We are evaluating the possibilities and will let you know our decision within the next week or so. Thank you again. I am crossing my fingers things go my way and they decide to publish me. Sorry for the pointless post but I was really excited. |

Re: Had to share possible good news
Yes, good luck! I have a number of books that are letters from soldiers(of all wars) and I believe there is a book about letters a Civil War surgeon sent home. Never mind- it's chaplains, not a surgeon.

Good luck on your back with a really fascinating look on the topic. If you do get it published would like to get a first edition buy with your autograph.

Re: Had to share possible good news
Karma headed your way. You are living in your own exciting times, and it appears you are making them. ;)
My dad is a history buff, sounds like a great gift for him. You might get writers cramp from autographed copies just from the Asylum, and need a truckload of books. Wouldn't that be a horrible thing? |
Re: Had to share possible good news
Best of luck brother... I will keep my fingers crossed too!!
|
Re: Had to share possible good news
That's awesome. Prayers for success with this effort. It sounds interesting. If it doesn't pan out with this one you may want to look into self publishing online.
