By the way, I don't consider self-publishing an embarressment. It is a time honored way of printing what a commerical publisher won't touch, and now I can see it has more potential than ever for giving more opportunities to struggling authors. The main problems I see with it is marketing (how do you get the word out) and editing (many wonderful writers are dreadful at self-editing), and money. Ah, money. Anyway, if you are going to confuse me with anyone, Crescent is a flattering choice. :)
