a good start



Not so much a start as a herald, to be precise, since we're still a few hours away from the dawn of '09.

Well, I hope it's a herald . . .

I just heard this morning from the publisher of my books Discarded Science and Corrupted Science that the Russian rights in both have sold -- to the company Izdatelstvo Martin.

The advances aren't such that I'll be agonizing any time soon over whether to buy a Ferrari or a Bentley, but at least I'm a few grand better off than I thought I was when I went to bed last night.

A few grand less insolvent, anyway.

Cheers and huzzahs!
Here's hoping 2009 is happy, healthy and prosperous. We've had more than enough of the other stuff.
Big New Year hugs,
Jean Marie

And here's hoping you two have a wonderful '09 as well!
