You know you’re in my thoughts and I hope that the Inkshares team reads this and is able to communicate more with you about your book and how long it might take for them to get to it. And also the benefits of Quill vs self publishing - there is their connection to various producers that might put your book in front of entertainment industry eyeballs.
Inkshares was publishing at least one Quill book a month, though I don’t know of any coming out after this month’s Sync City. Still, one a month and a backlog of 39ish books is quite a wait.
