But we all just have to keep plugging away, because if it has to be someone, why can't it be us next :)Emily Marshallhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07073350248209507278noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3318840210070768346.post-88818572985411113042010-07-26T19:20:06.426-07:002010-07-26T19:20:06.426-07:00I cancelled my sub to PM bc it started driving me ...I cancelled my sub to PM bc it started driving me crazy, see all the $ amounts.

Yeah, it seems the less you get the harder you have to work to promote etc. I often wonder if the major deal authors ever had to book a signing or design a bookmark etc.Kristina Springerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03171504801682649341noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3318840210070768346.post-72262394088876139902010-07-23T10:46:14.255-07:002010-07-23T10:46:14.255-07:00I hear you!

It's nice to see what other authors are like when it comes to advances since most are usually so secretive about it. I honestly didn't realize all the numbers from PM so i'm just amazed.
