Recognize that almost all of the regulatory restrictions and overkill “protections” on Cannabis are not necessary, and are based on prejudicial politicized science, Reefer Hokum “fake facts” indoctrination, ignorance- and neurosis-driven beliefs, bizarre claims, and Drug War, Big Pharma, and other conflicts of interest.

Seibold also notes that Crown was only the third title in the Denene Millner line, as the imprint debuted in spring 2017 with My Brown Baby by Millner.

The CPD was alerted to the robbery because a bank employee pulled a “hold-up alarm,” and officers responding to the bank spotted the suspect’s vehicle in the 200 block of Cloverdale Boulevard and successfully conducted a “high-risk stop.”

When a publisher agrees to buy the (future) manuscript, they offer an advance — often around $100,000 to $200,000 for a first-time chef-author — that’s paid out in installments. Money gets dropped when the chef signs, the manuscript is delivered, the book arrives in stores, and one year after its release. $125,000 isn’t a lot of money when it’s spread out over several years, and it seems like even less when you consider that chefs are responsible for paying to put the book together. Fischer says he paid his photographer $35,000, co-writer $30,000, designer $30,000, and bankrolled the recipe-testing and travel himself. Not only did he fail to profit, but he ended up spending more than his advance. “The hope,” says agent Monika Woods, “is that most of the money comes on signing and delivery, because the budget of a cookbook is crazy, and the chef and their teams usually have to bear the brunt of that.”

According to Plank, Haymarket’s strategy is to “put out books that speak to the current moment.” Shortly after Trump’s inauguration, Haymarket partnered with Random House Canada and Allen Lane in the U.K. to release a paperback edition of Naomi Klein’s No Is Not Enough: Resisting Trump’s Shock Politics and Winning the World We Need. Knopf Canada took the lead in editing and production, and Haymarket and Allen Lane tweaked the cover design and tailored title pages to their own specifications to drop the book simultaneously in the three countries. It was Haymarket’s top title this past year, having sold 60,052 copies.

The company also expanded its international efforts last year, opening an office in Vancouver, which lifted sales to Canada. It also now has an office in Melbourne and just opened in London.

“It’s more complex than it’s been in the past. You can’t just count on making a phone call to your printer and saying this book is taking off, let’s do a press run this week,” said Adam Rothberg, senior vice president of corporate communications at Simon & Schuster. “This is the new normal for the foreseeable future.”
