I expire around the 30 degree mark, so I can't imagine 47. I've been lucky enough to have had two very good publishers, the last being Random House. But they now get directions from overseas about the size of print run they need to guarantee, and this means that many well established authors are not getting published.<br />Hope you can stay cool!Juliethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01542985048406828693noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3078877172139600813.post-68439844905253383852013-01-28T21:53:34.554+13:002013-01-28T21:53:34.554+13:00I agree with you re publishing houses!
