Why haven't I heard about you and your book?

[Vasileios]

I guess that's because I'm self published. And that's because getting published in the "real" world of "real" publishers is like trying to fend off a shark attack while bleeding to death, armed with a toothpick and lots of bravado. It just doesn't happen, especially when writing science fiction and/or fantasy that doesn't involve vampires or a Hugo and Nebula showcase on your living room.
