Another Publisher Interested in The Vase

It was just yesterday I received an email from another publisher I had queried more than a year ago, expressing interest in publishing The Vase. Of course, I replied that it was being published by Penumbra, but still it makes me glad that The Vase had received such a large number of positive interest from a collection of different publishers. That publisher was something like the eighth publisher to at least express interest, and there have been five that have actually offered contracts. Penumbra is the third publisher with whom I had signed. The other two, I have documented thoroughly already, so no need to rehash that. But there was another publisher who offered a contract last December, which was before I had committed to Penumbra, but I was already working with Penumbra, polishing the writing, specifically the POV, that I wanted to at least see that through, so I passed, and, of course, Penumbra did offer the contract. If you go to the "coming soon" page on the Penumbra website, The Vase is already listed. So it's real, and I think it will be available by this summer. Can't wait. Still waiting on the return of the final edits, in the PDF print proof. The last one looked good. They have a picture of a vase on the first page of every chapter, which is cool. And it's close to what I envisioned the vase to look like, too. And the quality of the publication seemed great. Again, can't wait.
