There's a poll posted on the Kansas Central board on this subject. It's being asked by a Scaper who works for a publishing company, and would like to propose to her bosses that they consider purchasing the rights to publish FS novels. These would not be like the first three novels that were published, they would hopefully be written by people who know the characters and the FS universe, ie: some of our amazing fanfic writers.
In order for this proposal to have any sort of chance, though, she has to be able to show the publisher that there is enough interest. (For example, would you buy books in hardcover? As electronic downloads?) We need the numbers to prove there's an interest, so please head over there and vote. The poll has been reopened, if anyone tried to vote before and found it closed, and it was designed to allow you to vote for more than one response, so check all that apply.
Please read the top post in the poll thread, as she explains better than I can.
Hopefully we'll get enough response to show the publisher a demand for the product!
