WRITER'S DIGEST DECLARING BANKRUPTCY!
Hi folks,
Got some bad news for me and probably a lot of others. Just got a letter yesterday notifying me that F&W Publications--the owners of Writer's Digest Books is declaring bankruptcy. I did my part--sold out all the copies of Finding Your Voice and enjoying strong sales, year after year, of Hooked. Don't know what I'm going to do about Hooked. Any suggestions would be greatly welcomed!
This is the second time this has happened to me with my books. The first was with the publisher who published my hairstyling and business books--I was enjoying regular annual royalties of about $5,000 a year when they went under. They sold, year after year. That really sucked. So will this!
When WR sold out of Finding Your Voice, my then-agent Chip MacGregor took my reverted rights and self-published it for me. It's done well since. I don't know what I'll do with Hooked--asked my current agent her advice if we should seek out a new publisher or do what I did with Voice.
This business! Wish I'd stayed with something steadier like playing the ponies...
Blue skies,
Les
