First, the economy is crap right now, and people are more worried about saving their houses than buying a gift for a friend. Second, Christmas season is the perfect time to market a gift book, and my publisher is shooting for that. Third, several of the stores that ordered the book raised their orders, and we needed more time to print the books.<BR/><BR/>I'm bummed too, but the date was pushed for good reasons.Sharonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05838079791152448504noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15218164.post-22813634216515495152009-01-17T19:21:00.000-05:002009-01-17T19:21:00.000-05:00Hey, unrelated topic, but why was the release date...Hey, unrelated topic, but why was the release date for your book pushed back?

There are instances where where this does not apply, for example, if the patient has signed a binding do not recessitate waiver, then the doctors could not legally save him. In the Grey's example, however, the surgery did not fall under the parameters of the recessitation waiver, and I'm not sure if the patient had actually signed one in the first place.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
