Potomac Books has paid us our royalties
I would like to inform you that we received a check from Potomac for 2010 royalties.
We are still proceeding with our efforts to ensure future royalties are paid on time. To that end, we’d like to single out a few people who have provided valuable assistance.
- Robert Byrne is a litigation attorney in Virginia with Martin Wren. I spoke to a few attorneys, and Robert impressed me with his knowledge and insight. He’s a fantastic resource, and I would recommend him to anyone in need.
- Victoria Strauss heads up Writer’s Beware. She is very helpful, and gave us valuable reference material.
- Last, but not least, is a loyal reader and attorney who prefers to remain anonymous. He continues to provide us with valuable information and insight for nearly a year now, all pro bono. We’re doing our best to try to expose his true talents to the world at large, but, so far, he refuses. He has no bigger fan than the authors of The Book.
From all you’ve said about this subject, it sounded like Potomac was behind on paying a lot of authors, so I suspect the assistance you folks received may have helped move your contract toward the top of the pile. Even if that’s not correct, great to hear of this being resolved and of those who assisted you.
