Hey, anyone out there who has published a book ... a publisher's rep.
approached me today about publishing my grammar book. The publisher is
Kendall/Hunt. I am completely green about publishing a book, and don't
want to get snookered, as the British say. Can anybody give me advice? I
can send a few questions to you if you respond to me personally. I have
a contract on my desk and have to decide by 11/29.
One thing that makes me suspicious is that they do not automatically
send the book out for peer-review, although they will do so if I request
it. Anyway, I'll pose more questions if I get responses.
Thanks in advance.
Johanna
