Mike Stackpole set up a page asking for support: http://www.stormwolf.com/essays/appeal.html I've seen another one from Spider Robinson. I've got a feeling that the publishing industry isn't doing all that well. What does this mean to us? It means that if you like an author you should recommend him to friends and support him by buying new books. Used ones are cheaper (and you can often get them in good condition) but the author doesn't see a penny of that sale. It's hard to believe that a best selling writing (750,000+ of one title would put him in that category) like Stackpole is looking at getting a day job. One of Cook's reasons for only putting out a few books a year was the hours put in at his full time "get money to feed my family" job. I'm not sure which of Cook's books are in print but I plan to round out my paperback collection (getting paperbacks when I already have the hardcovered ones means I have books I can lend).
