LETTER

S.R. Crockett

Thanks for kindly meant letter; takes wholly for self; publication of books not author's difficulty; who arranges serial rights (England, US, Australia) to tune of £1500+; who knows which magazines need stories; who looks after every 1000-2000 word story for simultaneous publication for copyright; not Unwin or Crockett; hates worry, agent only remedy for unbusinesslike man; doesn't mind paying 6-10% for easy mind; can't do as Unwin wishes but drinks (in collar water, 10th hour) to future good relations; wife away, can't find Pennell drawings (one given away) but has half dozen or more, will send when wife returns from St Andrews
