Twelve minutes later I had an email back saying he was going to run it.

Talk about instant gratification.
Sounds like he read it immediately, and pounced. And well he should: it's timely, topical, and exactly the sort of thing the Bulletin would look for. I'll be surprised if more than a few other authors haven't thought about trying to produce ebooks, and the responses should prove interesting.

Someone in another thread said I ought to let other writers know about the help we can get from communities like this one. I think I just managed to do that.
Let us know when it will appear, and if possible, make an electronic copy available from your site.
