Alan Schoonmaker's Opinion For My Next Book

[*TT*]

Dr. Schoonmaker's views on ALGEBRA FOR TEN YEAR OLDS is flawed. He is assuming the only way the book would be published is if it were published, marketed and distributed by 2+2 - which IMHO would be a huge mistake. You need to find a partner publisher which specializes in the education market. A publisher partner like Kaplan might love your concept, they specialize in breaking down education barriers.

But keep in mind that your reputation for dating a 16 year old (even if you didn't know) won't exactly help find a partner publisher. I think it would have been better keeping that story under wraps if your intention is to market this book to teens. Perhaps a better solution is to market the book for adults who have forgotten rudimentary algebra?
