We could not find a royalty publisher for Crooked House, because most of them thought the story too local, despite the important lessons it contains (and the fact — as many have told us — that it is a “gripping read”). So we published the book ourselves. We did not seek out a royalty publisher for Crumbling Dreams, since we had already set up Lakeside Press by that time.
