Does anybody know when does this new schedule kicks in? The site shows the e-book of the new Bryan Smith available this month, but Amazon doesn't have a listing for it.

I haven't had a book from leisure since before last October

Sorry, I'm not buying a company as reborn because they release a schedule. If you look at this schedule, the first trade is in March of an already published book. The first original trade is Gord's book in May. And quite frankly, I'm not sure I want to give Leisure anymore of my money. My opinion still holds.

And I thought Bryan Smith said at the Keenedom he'd gotten the rights to his books back. EDIT: I went back and checked, and Bryan said they could publish the ebook as long as he was paid his full advance.

Then you're a better man than I, Tony.

For me, they're not even an option.

The better man is the one who has taken personal care of his mom through her sickness and has done many other acts of kindness.

Looks like the first time I might buy something from Leisure again is in September, just so I can have Funland.

A couple months don't have any horror releases.

And check this out. If they had kept Don, maybe he would have caught this brilliant error.

I'm with Thad. Leisure is dead to me.

I still have no confirmation that these trade paperbacks are actually going to happen either. No one at Leisure tells me anything anymore. I suppose we will find out soon enough. I guess I'm still hopefull my book will come out in stores and it will be successful but I'm also unsure if I'll get paid even if it sells like crazy. Who knows? At this point it's hard to even care. All I'm focused on is finishing my new book and hopefully selling it to a publisher that gives a damn about their writers.

Cheers,

Gord

I dunno. After that whole dust-up last year, I'm very hesitant to hand over one thin dime to Dorchester ever again.
