Ruby is Rebecca`s middle name and she often writes under that name..

Shhhhh.......don't tell everyone there was only one book in the class, it sounds better that way.
At least I know why I was thinking Ruby now.

Thanks guys - we're well pleased! (claps)

It was nice to get a plug on the Cryptomundo board after what has been a hectic year with the book's production, launch, attending two conferences to promote it and physically distributing/selling it. In fact we've been so busy this year I think I lost six months somewhere along the way - time has flown!

We really appreciate the support of everyone here who has bought, promoted and passed on the word on about our book. Self-publishing is hard graft, and it's gratifying to get positive feedback considering how long the whole thing took.

I'm pleased to say this isn't the end, just the beginning - keep your eyes peeled for another book in 2011!

Cheers,

Rebecca Ruby

Hi Mike & Rebecca,

I just caught the story on A Current Affair tonight - congratulations! it came across as quite a positive story and a wonderful promotion for the book. :) (Not sure about the X-Files theme music though... ;) ).

For those interested, here is the link to the story:

I think Rebecca used the words xfiles somewhere and it stuck in the producers mind..

And the pleasing aspect of the ACA story it that the subject was not treaded as a joke for once. Well done guys for your hard work in producing the book that has
been well received.

Now, all we need is a big back puss to turn up, dead or alive!
