DEAR TED:
I JUST GOT IN FROM NEW YORK, AND WANTED TO SEND YOU AN UPDATE ON THE BOOK. THERE, I GOT THE WHOLE STORY AS TO WHY HBJ REJECTED THE BOOK. THE ORIGINAL CONTRACT WAS GIVEN THE GO AHEAD BY THE EDITOR-IN-CHIEF. SHORTLY AFTER THE CONTRACT WENT OUT, SHE RETIRED FROM THE PUBLISHING BUSINESS. THE NEW MAN IN CHARGE DECIDED, FOR FINANCIAL REASONS, TO CUT BACK HARCOURT'S LIST AND FELT THAT "PSYCHIC BOOKS" WOULD BE THE FIRST TO GO. SO THERE WAS NOTHING SINISTER IN THE LOSS OF THE CONTRACT.
PRENTICE-HALL IS CURRENTLY TAKING A BEATING ON A UFO BOOK THEY ISSUED, SO THEY ARE NOT DOING ANY UFO BOOKS AT PRESENT.
OUR BOOK IS NOW IN THE HANDS OF BALLANTINE BOOKS AND DIAL PRESS. I WILL HEAR FROM THEM IN DUE COURSE.
BEST WISHES
Scott

Dear Scott,
Saga did 5 articles about me with Otto Binder.
Following which Saga replaced the Editor who had OK'd the articles on me and my work and from there on in "PK Man" was persona non grata in Saga.
Nunca mas. Nothing "sinister" there either, right?
Owen
* also, Otto dropped dead.
