I When you mentioned you were trying to resolve the issue I just assumed you were not locked into an idea.
On the other...gotta claim ignorance. What’s the name of the book and where might I get a copy? I’d be interested in reading it.
My completed books are described on my home page. Other than the first book, "Outlandish!", (and it is!), my printer, through me, is the only source. (The last book is called "Reaction!")
On my homepage, you can click on "Outlandish!" to be taken to a link, which I just did. Curiously, that link suggests that you can buy the book as an E-Book. I don't remember giving that permission. It also mentions that there's a sale going on. Interesting.
The other books, only available through my printer, have been set up slightly differently than the first. A matched set can be arranged through PM.
By the way, I have already sent you a PM, concerning the short story, (so far), called "Night Work".
Please let me know what you might like to do. Caution is advised. This is a category I call Sociological Science Fiction. It's one of those places where "the rules are different".
