It was successfully cancelled at one publisher, he was just lucky/famous enough to find another. How many people don't get a second chance?

- arrrg 4y agoDo you have a right to be published? Free association is also an important liberal right.

The correspondence was well considered and polite, but the obvious conclusion is that the publisher caved to the woke mob, and didn't want to admit it.
- arrrg 4y agoWhat does caving to the woke mob even mean? This is just such a weird perspective.
- defrost 4y ago> How many people don't get a second chance? The vast majority of people attempting to get published during the "Golden Age of Science Fiction" for starters. Even reading the autobiographical writings of those that became big names you'll find a seemingly endless runway of rejection before liftoff, cancelled acceptances, demands for rewrites, multiple publisher approaches, etc. One publisher getting cold feet isn't the end of the world, ask any writer that's made it.
- aredox 4y agoWell, if you look closer, almost none. Controversy sells, and you can become a guest speaker on the "help! In being cancelled!" tour.
