A good read to put you to sleep ! - jangold

Hi girls - I'm SO excited I just had to share this with you. All last year I was writing a chapter on crime at work for a criminology book edited by four other people. Anyway, this week I discovered to my dismay that I had been missed off the pre-publication list - now as an academic that is bad as we do not write for money (30 dollars in this case and one free book (don't read it all at once !)) but to get us known for our subject. For me, although I have had a few articles published this was my first book chapter - so was particulary important for me. Anyway, today when I was about to ring up the publishers to complain I spotted the online shop where the book is now featured to pre-order and they had added my name !! So one, I'm relieved and two, I'm over the moon I'm in print at last !! Hugs Jan xxx
