early publications

[Mark Kohut]

This seems to me to suggest: at one time Ms. Candida Donadio DID license this story to some (small) pub. 

It was published......with the proper indication of rights: CD & A.................so now

the pirated copy was made from that edition and shows that.

One of the futures that the publishing of books will bring us, besides pirated ebooks will be some pirated 
printed books.....

have you ever seen a perfectly scanned then printed copy of a regular book? If paper and color (for cover)
is of same quality, the book looks as if printed by the original publisher...............

Will be much less theft since printing and binding from scanned copies is nowhere near as cheap as copying ebooks, needless to say.

The "Candida Donadio & Associates, Inc." is curious, as Candida Donadio was once TP's agent.

I posted a question last week, but got no response, so I'll give it another try.I've recently got copies of Low-lands, Mortality and Mercy & Journey into the mind of Watts published by Aloe Books and Mouldwarp.  All of them acknowledge the original publication and Journey and Low-lands state the copyright TP.  Journey has a strange "justification" signed by Trystero at the end.  Low-lands even says "reprinted by permission of Candida Donadio & Associates, Inc".What I'm wondering first off, is whether anyone knows if these are pirated or were they authorized by TP?  If they are pirated versions, does anyone know if TP responded in any way?thanks,scott
