In For The Long Long Haul

Upwards of a year it seems.
The second publisher may have a first notice turnabout of 1 to 2 months, but once your past the initial "courtship" phase and engaged to possibly "marry" it's a long "courtship". Anywhere between 2 months to an entire year (and this isn't saying whether that is in addition to the 1-2 months you already waited to move onto this next phase of the courtship).

I hope initial acceptance means a better than good chance of publication. It would kind of blow if you wait over a year just to find out they're rejecting you.

In the meantime still no word on Freelancers. Hopefully that is a good sign.

Updates as they become available.

Quick as a Flash...

And "Just Happy To See Her" is out again looking for a new publisher.
This is Publisher #2 (of 3 to date).
Not to say I am becoming a wee bit concerned but... I am becoming a wee bit concerned. Still, it is the second of three possible publishers so I do have a little wiggle room left with "Just Happy To See Her" right now.

I won't give up though, I'll just find other people to publish with sticking to my guns of getting all these books published. Just you wait and see.

Now working on both HSWC : Extra Lessons and a Pocket Passions video game book of Nintendo DS slash PSP reviews. That, however, might be harder to find a publisher for since I only have marks for Adult Erotica publishers at this moment. I need to dig about and find a video game book publisher for Pocket Passions.

Reminds me to also work on a Wii book somewhere down the line.

In the meantime we're once again doing the waiting game for word from the publishers. Brief recap...

Freelancers - No word from first publisher.
Hentai Review Poppers - No word from first publisher
Home Schooled Witchcraft : Extra Lessons - Work in progress
Just Happy To See Her - Moved on to second publisher

Keep an eye here for new updates.

Update for "Just Happy To See Her"

Well, we tried our best but as of this moment it's one down and two to go in regard to publishers. I put the new submission together and sent it out ASAP, but it'll be a bit of a wait once again for word to come in so stay tuned.

Conventional Wisdom
Hmm... we might actually get word about it before the end of the year, given it is supposed to take 4-6 weeks for notification. Maybe less since I don't think 4-6 weeks have passed since contacting the first publisher with Just Happy To See Her.

On the bright side of things first submission, Freelancers, is still under consideration. Hopefully that means it's odds of being picked up for publication are higher now that it is still in the consideration process.

That would be good news, wouldn't it.

Of course that doesn't mean I should sit on my rear and not finish my next submission, Home Schooled Witchcraft : Extra Lessons. Hopefully this will motivate me to complete it sooner (after I get HSWC #4's script ready to go).

More updates as they become available, stay tuned.
