If the Publisher is pissed off at you and tries to give your book to a dairy cow, you don't have to automatically accept this.
ROTFL!!!!! A DAIRY COW???? Oh, my, that had me laughing so hard I was crying . . . and I still break out into fits of giggles.
Thank you for so much info on contracts though. I had one published professor tell me that I didn;t need to know contracts - it was my agent's job to do this. But, after hearing about so many agents (generally in the entertainment industry, byt the principle remains) taking their clients' money, I couldn't believe her attitude. I'd rather know what the heck I was getting to without having to ask my agent, "So, this is good, right?"
Course, I'm also a bit of a control freak, so probably wouldn't leave it all to the agent and just sign the dotted line without knowing what the heck I was signing anyway.
