Dear Sir/Madam; I have a friend who has written about her experiences as a little girl growing up in Holland during the war. I have her manuscript and as I read it I thought that this has the potential ( I am NOT an expert) to be as popular and as explosive a best seller as 'The Diary of Ann Frank' when it was first published. I would like to send this manuscript to you. Please advise and please understand that I want nothing for myself but I am so convinced that this has the potential to be a best seller that I will leave no stone unturned until publishing this becomes a reality. It is exciting, inspiring and a "Can't put it down" book. Thank you for reading this.
Just received this, OMG can't believe it. He also wants me to make it a talking book and advises me to do it myself. Having still my Dutch accent make it according to him, just perfect.

Is this someone you know? Or at least the friend of a friend? Or some strange man?

Someone I have met on CS, I have met with him personally and he gave me his own book to read. I have looked it up and he is where he told me I could find his book on the net.
I don't know if I deserve all he says but hey as long as the publisher agrees with him.

I say, go for doing the recording then...but ask him to pay you for it and make sure that you get credit and royalties. That part should be a business deal.

I offered to give him half IF IF IF, we find a publisher but he refused to take me up on it. Shucks have been given my stories out for free for a long time.
