Jim Cox Report: August 2021

Dear Publisher Folk, Friends & Family:

I have recently been interviewed by a reporter from my local newspaper, The Oregon Observer. There's even a big photograph of me. For anyone that wants to see what I look like these days here is a direct link to the interview as archived on the Midwest Book Review web site:

This month's "Jim Cox Report" is again abbreviated because I have a couple more hospital based tests to undergo before surgery later this month and I'm pretty much sidelined while my daughter and Managing Editor Bethany takes care things in the office.

Thanks again for all the well wishes I've been getting. They mean a lot to me.

If you have postage stamps to donate, or if you have a book you'd like considered for review, then send those postage stamps (always appreciated, never required), or a published copy of that book (no galleys, uncorrected proofs, or Advance Reading Copies), accompanied by a cover letter and some form of publicity release to my attention at the address below.

All of the previous issues of the "Jim Cox Report" are archived on the Midwest Book Review
website at www.midwestbookreview.com/bookbiz/jimcox.htm. If you'd like to receive the "Jim Cox Report" directly (and for free), just send me an email asking to be signed up for it.

So until next time -- goodbye, good luck, and good reading!
