I just love it when good people have a big win. I equally love it when people who are underestimated win against condescending shits.

This was the article I was hunting, and so glad I found it! Remaindered books was the term I couldn't recall, although the concept and the wisdom inherent stuck in my mind.

The artist I collaborate with and I submitted our work to a publisher, and as I am still hunting a lawyer, I can at least get great advice from someone who has been there. Again, thank you so much for sharing your experiences. For those of us wanting to get into the pool, it's amazing to read of your experiences and learn from them. So heartfelt thanks from both of us!

Can attest Harlan did well with bringing a decent supply of his remainders to his public appearances and selling and then signing them after his talk/performance. I was proud Susan and he trusted me enough that when I was at an event, I'd help Susan with doing the actual sales to the point of getting to handle money and have full access to the cashbox.

Yep, Harlan was so kind to let me know how he did that. I always buy out my remaindered books now. And wonderful that you guys had that kind of trust!

Finally!! I'm so happy for your big victory, and perplexed by how they tried to harm you...

I'm taking my time to learn more about you and your work, and every time I become more more fan of you^^

I totally understand the gafiate issue, I moved way out into the country a couple decades back, and without modern internet, gafiating was inevitable.

I have some stories about the mid-1990's comics industry crash coming up.

Anyway, J Michael Straczynski is the executor of Harlan Ellison's estate and The Last Dangerous Visions has a release date of September 1, 2024. https://www.theguardian.com/books/2020/nov/16/harlan-ellison-the-last-dangerous-visions-anthology-may-be-published
