[pinkmoon]

Another month gone still no sign of this book.

[Hercule Poirot]

I would actually buy this book so would a lot of people

As would all those who believe the Emperor was really wearing clothes.

I'd rather buy a phone book even if they're free.

Four is not a lot in my opinion.

What me I'm hurt

I said exactly the same thing to someone on another forum about 10 minutes ago when the made the same accusation against me, so being hurt gets you nowhere.

[pinkmoon]

Me thinketh pinkmoon be's stirring.

[GUT]

Me thinketh pinkmoon be's stirring.

We've had far more stranger theories over the years.

Stranger theories than the one which has Vincent Van Gogh slaying prostitutes in the East End of London whilst simultaneously posting letters from the South of France? Er - no.

Self-publishing is pretty easy, economical and fun!

One can get a really professional result with just a bit of research and aforethought, something that a Ripper author will be experienced in doing already.

Even if you didn't want to do a printed version this way you could just do a Kindle one which would establish your copyright etc, and protect you from anyone else stealing your thunder. Then you could use the proceeds from that version to fund the printed version (though one can publish those with very minimal costs nowadays anyway).

I have some experience in this and would be happy to freely offer any pointers or suggestions if I can. I am know quite a bit about promoting the finished product, which is very important if you want to get it selling fast. Feel free to message me if you think I can help in anyway.

We have to give this a chance

[Hercule Poirot]

Someone, somewhere is certainly telling his friends: "I told you that 3 years later these crack heads on Casebook would still be discussing my Van Gogh/Jack the Ripper 'theory'. Now each one of you as promised, give me my well earned 100$".

One of these days, I'll come up with my one theory and I'm quite sure many will bring up arguments I would never have thought would even exist supporting it. It's what I'd call the "The Emperor's New Clothes" syndrome. Please, take two aspirins and call me back tomorrow.

A "fun" non-existent book...They're the best kind!

[Steadmund Brand]

Sad as it is, I know that I would have to buy it.... I can claim I wouldn't all I want but I know deep down I would....and if they are honest so would most people on here.. even if it is just to mock it.. they will still buy it... plus, I bet it's one hell of a fun book anyway.

Of course he will find a publisher a book like this is bound to sell.

[Pcdunn]

Any news when the books out Dale .

I suppose there is always the self-publishing e-book route, if he can't find a publisher...
