In Escape POD GalleyCat writes about an author who self-published his memoir after he got a lousy contract from a trade publisher.
Here's the weird part: Said author had an agent who apparently didn't negotiate the contract at all.
Weirder still: Said author hired a publicist to send out a press release about his book touting the raw deal he got from the trade house.
My first thought when reading this was WTF?*
My second was that this author is going to have to stick with iUniverse from now on, as I can't imagine an agent or trade publisher would want to touch him after he broadcast his ugly little backstory.
