So on May 10th, I got an email from my agent Leticia, telling me that (gasp) another publishing agency wants to work with TSA! To quote:
"I have received another offer for Swamp Angel and would like to speak to
you about it. The offer comes from an independent e-publisher who is
soon going to become a traditional print publisher as well. Attached is
their publishing agreement for you to review prior to us speaking on the
phone. As you know, the offer from Spencer Hill Press is still on the
table so what I would like to do is go offer both offers and compare.
Since we have now received a good number of rejections from the larger
more established publishing houses, I thought now would be a good time
to really evaluate the offers already on the table, just in case."
Trestle Press/ Helping Hands Press in the name of this other press. That makes two publishing offers to choose from. Since we've heard back from most of the presses Leticia has written to, I've decided that next week I'll be making the final choice on which company to go with and talk it out with Leticia.
Truth be told, I'm leaning more towards Spencer Hill than TP/HHP. My mom and dad looked over the contract the latter sent (when in doubt, contact your parents), and they said their press doesn't sound nearly as good as Spencer Hill. And TP/HHP says that they're an e-publisher that's switching to traditional print soon, but how do I know TSA won't end up a e-book that can easily be passed over? I'll have to talk with Leticia about it and see what she has to say.
Later,
Colleen Boyd
