Well there is a big difference betwen a posting :

"Hey world, I finally got my name in print!!! :)"

and

"XYZ is rpoud to announce the release of the latest blockbuster
by Ima Riter, it's wonder, it's great, rush out and buy one!"


Okay. Perhaps a little exaggeration there... but only a little.

I think that you would be surprised. I think it would great if writers
felt that they could share their achievements with the newsgroups...
and okay, so you maynot be excited by the release of the latest
hardware manual/role playing scemario/Romance/PI etc.. 

But IMHO I really think that the feedback, and dare I say
encouragement would be welcome by a hell of a lot of people.



Just a thought, while I lay my neck on the line.... :)
