From the front matter
“If this book describes your life and you would be willing to tell your real story for a future edition — with your consent, your review, and your veto — I would like to hear from you.”
What you’re agreeing to, and what you’re not
- Nothing is published without your written consent. Sending this form is an expression of interest, not permission to print.
- You read what’s written about you before anyone else does. If a draft goes forward, it comes to you first.
- You can withdraw at any point up to press. A change of mind is always allowed, no reason required.
- You choose how you’re identified — first name only, a pseudonym, or your full name.
- A reply is not a guarantee of inclusion. Many good stories will not fit the shape of the edition.
