I can sell the idea

 Nothing changes

                                                      Curse of the Indie Writer

A few minutes ago, I had a chat with a publisher who was very interested in my book. I had him hooked by the various themes I have interwoven in my 118-page novelette.

I put forward the possibility of the book beginning a series; we chatted about what they can do, but as usual, I was blocked by the Curse of the Indie Writer; outlay Vs possible income. The costs were reasonable for the work being done, I cannot afford to have the book published, nor can I envisage earning enough to recoup my outlay. I could have been wrong, but it's a huge risk.

I've never had a problem selling my ideas to publishers, but that is as far as I go.
