Just talked to my gal at the publisher and found out the why of things - because the guy who has overseen the production of every book of mine for the past fifteen years, is no longer overseeing it other than answering emails and phone calls. And apparently, no one was communicating with each other which is why things dragged on. We'll address how, going forward, we'll fix this so it never happens again, but meantime, she's escalating this right to the top, to insure I at least get stuff tomorrow, but since there's been no communication, I have no confidence they even looked at the instruction sheet, which petrifies me. But my gal is tops and hopefully her escalating will do the trick. It's obviously not coming today.
