Title: OUCH Cookbook Update
Post by Roxy on Apr 23rd, 2003, 10:40am
I had a meeting with the publisher of the cookbook on Monday.  When I turned everything in on the date they specified, they quoted me a price, and gave me the 'estimate' in writing, but when I went in for the meeting this week, they doubled the price of the publishing on me.  Then after telling me the price had doubled, they informed me that they couldn't give me a 'final' price until the book was done.  At that point they were up to about $4000.00.  I responded back with a few very unladylike words, gathered the book up, and left.

Then, I proceeded down the road to the local, neighborhood Kinko's.  Kinko's is going to publish the OUCH cookbook.  The only problem is that I have to now retype the whole *&%$#$$*&  book.  Kinko's deadline for having it done is much shorter than the publishing company.  So now we have time to collect more recipes.

I know there are some new people on the board, and there are definitly some not so new one's who haven't sent in recipes.  

So, here we go again with the begging part,

PLEASE SEND ME RECIPES

PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE

My email is twasinger@msn.com.

Remember.....it's for a good cause.   ;D

Ha! I knew there'd be more time. Now I need to finally type in those few more for you.

BTW, thanks for doing all the organization.  ;D I also have had to deal with publishers on occasion, but the one that we use when we publish technical work is great. (Hanser-Verlag)

Take care

Thanks for your efforts Roxy. I wish I were in the room when they doubled on you. LMAO

Kinkys will do a good job. Will there be a centerfold?

If you need some help re-doing I will help you. We can work something out. Mail me 1/2 the book or something.

Yes, there will be a centerfold.  All male members of OUCH and this board, please send photos.....I'll pick the winner.  Only photos posed in a centerfold manner will be accepted.

Thanks for the offer Don, and you too Grant.  I'll keep plugging along, shouldn't be any problem.  But, if I get in a bind, I will let you know.

How about you writing an intro Don?  Words of wisdom and wit for the first page?

Tracey
