Actually, Maria, I got mine before yours and it clearly stated the contract was terminated. I was literally set free and as I understand it, I am among the few. I think it's because I caught them in a pretty big lie. That is that my book would be available at all times as stated via my contract. I tried ordering three copies of my books through amazon.com and a few other people did as well. The order could not be completed, they couldn't get the books to me through amazon.com. When I confronted them about it, they kept on spinning different stories, then came back with "Yes, it is so available!" sort of reply. Then I replied with their own e-mail from the same person who was saying that, showing that it was indeed unavailable, but I could purchase it from their website!
It was silent for a while, then about a month later I was released completely from both contracts, one was cancelled entirely from print the day it was supposed to be released and they cancelled over 40 orders for that book that I know of.
I guess I was too much of a liability or something. To this day I don't completely understand it, I was so depressed on the march up to the book release, the cover was hideous and had absolutely nothing to do with my book. They had added errors into the copy the whole 9 yards. I was about to send them an e-mail saying they won, I would not be asking for my rights back anymore, but they would not be recieving any more communications from me, when the e-mail freeing me came. The letters arrived in the mail the next day. After that it only took me about 4 years to write another novel...
