My personal project since about 2020 has been to transfer to print publication (on the theory that print might last longer than the internet) as much as possible of the material that I've been publishing on ATS. I've been discussing it from time to time on the other site.
The first step was made last year, when Advantage published "Silence in Heaven" and "The Unseen Husband", covering Revelation and the Song of Solomon.
There are now new developments in this important venture (I think it's an important venture, anyway).
I went to the London Book Fair earlier this year, which was something of a damp squib for me since I did not realise the need to make advance appointments to meet people. But when i first told them of my plans to go, Advantage offered to publish one more book for me free of charge, so I'm taking them up on that offer with respect to a book on Daniel.
And since then I've been in touch with Austin Macauley, who are taking on Prophets, Priests, and Politics, to be published next year. They are "hybrid publishers", and I'm still in the world of self-publishing for this book anyway, but at least they should be doing some marketing, as compared with Advantage who leave me to my own devices. They ask for "first refusal" on my next book, and if all goes well I could ask them to take on "Christ died for the ungodly", which is the most important manuscript I've got.
But there at at least a dozen in the full set, and I'm by now "an old man in a hurry" (which historians will recognise as Lord Randolph Churchill's description of Gladstone). There's still a long way to go.
