It was a bit over 3 pages. It just read like 5. Actually, it read like 10 pages by the end, but I thought I was being reasonable with 3.<br /><br />And it was not badly written. Lots of advice, clearly stated, links to sites I already know a great deal about, and then -- unfortunately -- about a page of didactic, over-the-top Zettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01837114270302314607noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3200079.post-39967489190118901202010-04-07T23:54:36.517-05:002010-04-07T23:54:36.517-05:00Someone actually wrote you a five-page letter expl...Someone actually wrote you a five-page letter explaining how wrong you are about self-publishing?
