And this has helped me enormously. Logically I knew that publishing was a business, like any other, and had its own code of practices. But somehow when it came down to submitting my manuscripts paranoia seemed to set in and I started taking things too personally. Something I never have done in connection with my "real life" jobs. Just having someone from the industry prepared to explain the whys and wherefores has been invaluable.
Good to see you back on the boards, John. Hope you managed to enjoy some of the good weather we had in between all the hard work.
