Mr. Booth: There must be some miscommunication on this issue.
When I got my book, The Three Barons published by TrineDay, I, too sent them an initial manuscript. But, apparently, an author can't just send a manuscript to TrineDay and expect them to fix any problems with it.
In my experience, I re-read and posted corrections to the (then) current version of the text. I wound up going through the entire text seven times total, before I signed off that it was ready to publish.
In terms of my experience, your description of the TrineDay process doesn't make any sense. You seem to be suggesting that Wendy signed off on a perfected version of the manuscript, sent it to TrineDay and that they then basically vandalized it.
Based on my experience with Mr. Kris Millegan, the publisher of TrineDay, he could run mental rings around (not just me) but anybody who I have ever seen posting here on this site without exception.
As Abe Lincoln famously said about Ulysses S. Grant "If he's always drinking whisky, then let's send some of that whiskey to my other generals."
If the TrineDay people are on drugs, then it must be a drug that induces courage. Because they are bold enough to print any kind of true and necessary information for the benefit of readers like myself.
Actually, I'm pretty sure they are not on any drugs, whiskey, chemicals, etc. etc. Maybe some Kryptonite from time to time.

(p.s. Bonus factoid: Just now on CNN, former CIA man Phil Mudd said on air on CNN that the CIA is a "brotherhood" and that somebody (implicitly from the CIA brotherhood) is likely to "stick a knife" into Rudy Guliani. I'm not making this up.)
