MESSAGES FROM ddumping AND onfoyou...

Received messages from both ddumping and onfoyou, both of them saying that they enjoyed the website and found it informative and useful. Thanks guys!
Figured it would serve some purpose to establish a forum of some kind...a question and answer scenario where aspiring authors could write in questions and I could answer them, perhaps pass on those same questions to other published authors I know in different and varied genres. That way you wouldn't get an opinion slanted only towards crime fiction...
So how about it? Send some questions, perhaps some of your own experiences dealing with the literary industry yourselves...sending out manuscripts and never hearing back, what to think about the 'form rejection letter', your frustrations, successes, such things as these...
Oh, by the way...I received the final advance copy hardback of City of Lies at the weekend and it looks great. Far and away the best hardback cover design so far!

Hi Roger,

I'm just curious if you know who "onfoyou" is. I also received a message from him/her. Thanks. Ervi

Ervi...I honestly don't know any more than you who onfoyou is, but good to hear from you anyway! A lot of e-mails come through the website with nothing other than the person's webname. Sorry I cannot solve the mystery for you. Best, RJE.
