PEBA novel sent to Editor

#1 Post by Arroyos »

PEBAns, one and all:

My novel about the Yuma GM and his "visit" to the Camarillo State Mental Hospital has been sent to the editor. I finished the third draft and sent it on. The editor will mostly be formatting the ms. for publication. I'm done writing the damn thing!

I wanted to share with you the Dedications. See below.

Thanks to all of you who contributed to my stories of madness over the years, and to those of you who will buy the book, of course!

Bob

Congrats and thank you Bob! I wish you all the best, may sales be brisk and a movie deal in the works - George Crocker has already called dibs on the role of Will Topham...

Tell George, if they let me have any say in casting, I'll cast my vote for him. But you know how Hollywood treats writers.

Congrats Bob! Out of curiosity, is this a self-published book? Or did you sign a deal with a publisher?

I'm self-publishing, while I send a copy to the one or two publishers who might be interested in a story about an imaginary baseball game played by an old man in a mental hospital. A very limited audience!
