Nomad's quite right. When I submitted to Capri I knew she had a couple hundred submissions on hand, but had no idea she intended to publish so much so fast. When it became obvious that she was overdoing it, I had reservations, but by then the contract was signed. At the time I submitted, she had a half-dozen books published and that looked reasonable. I knew she was seeking better distribution and I talked to half a dozen independent bookstores to make sure that her discount and return policy posed no problems, a couple had sold a few copies of the Aysel Arwen books.

It turned out one e-book publisher was seriously considering the book and another small press was doing likewise, but they had made no communications with me about it.

So, I'm back in the saddle again, and it's out to one Canadian publisher as a partial at the moment.

I still have a couple publishers and three agent partials out for Jars of Doom and am working on a third book as of now.

That's the only way to pursue it that stands a chance as best I can tell.

Good ruck evuhleebloody, as Benny Hill might say.

Regards,
Scott

Scott;
I first became interested in this thread when you mentioned going with Capri. My heart broke when your dream was sidelined. Glad you're back in the saddle. Now grab yer saddle horn (?!) and hang on.

Best wishes,
Rick

One day last week, I recieved a letter from that Isaac telling me that I had gotten my release and everything in my file had been shredded.
I don't have the email any more, but that is what is said in a nut shell.
I don't know why he sent that to me, because it's been a very long time since I got my release. ???? did any of you get the same email?
I hope you all get released soon.

Hi Jennifer

I received the same e-mail as you from "Isaac", who I strongly suspect is
really Bridgett. I just received it yesterday. You see, I compared this
Isaac's e-mails (6 in all) to the ones I had received awhile back from Bridgett
at Capri and the style, composition, wording, font size, etc. was truly
identical to the e-mails I received from "Isaac". Now, the funny thing is that the 6th - and last - e-mail that I received from "Isaac" (yesterday) was not
signed. All the prior 5 e-mails were duly signed "Isaac". I believe the last
one was unsigned because a few days ago I sent "Isaac" an e-mail and told
"him" that I thought he was indeed really Bridgett using an alias. Also, do bear in mind that this "Isaac's" e-mail account is almost brand new! Does
that tell you anything? Happy Holidays, Joe D.

I thought that all along. Today I recieved a letter in the snail mail from Bridgett telling me Capri was closed and I was released from my two projects with her, which I already had a letter for some time ago.

Happy Holiday to you too.
