thanks for your help:
1) yes, Cook is a publisher himself
2) that would be my 4th book, I would need a specific contact, someone that you think could be interested in. as I wrote: "not a classical name you could have in mind (just like I could have), but someone you have infos could be interested in."

3) I had 3 different publishers, and more than 1000 books sold. now I need a big one, English or USA. English translation is the challenge
I would add: considering the "new" interest about Hollywood and Hipercussion, and how large and unpublished is the material in my mind, it should be a good deal.
thanks
