No it doesn't. I have overseen dozens of projects converting millions
of scanned pages into digital text. We paid people in China mere pence
to do it. Inputting text is a no brainer and you get a far lower error
rate using people who don't speak the language the text is in.


and then to design both
cover and text.

Having seen you idea of 'design' on poor Reggie's website you clearly
have an eye for anything but design. And designing text??? Please,
don't make me laugh. Choosing a font? Oh lord I never knew my mother
was an publisher every time she send me an email in a new one of her
seemingly endless supply of fonts.

You seem to be rather ignorant about what goes into
making a high quality small press book. As the books were warmly
praised for their superior production qualities, it paid off.



Let's not forget that you haven't even copies of the books.

Not books. Book. You published one for poor Reggie. I should imagine
he's considering having his name changed by deed poll to Poor Reggie
by now.

If you're
able to shell out £300 I believe there is a copy listed at Bookfinder,
so you can see for yourself.

Like others, I wouldn't buy anything you published cos you're a creepy
stalker who takes Usent disputes into real life, but I might buy a
copy of Masques Of Satan knowing the money will get to poor Reggie via
his new publsher, Ash Tree Press. I imagine they might have a couple
left. they did do their initial run at twice that of his last one so I
am told.

And the nominations were for the publishing of it were they? Or were
the actually for the content, which 'you' wrote?


Same old crap. You're like a bitter ex lover who can't move on with
her life.

Same old avoidance of the question. You sound like a bitter ex
publisher who has seen a writer move on with their career.
