I guess I was lucky. My publisher changed very little of my story. I also had a great editor.

I guess that sometimes these publishers know what they are doing but other times their egos get in the way and to put your family at risk just wasn't right. Just not right. That's ego driven and nothing else.

I believe your book has and will help many in this situation. Just like the woman on my site. Her sister killed her abusive husband and then, shot herself. It's been extremely hard on her and the family. Guilt, remorse, anger...a big mixture of very bad emotions.
