One of our sales reps, John Mesjak, got up on the right side of the bed today.

When I wake up in the morning, and make my way to the desk with coffee in hand, it’s easy for me to think that I work on the side of the angels. I represent a whole raft of independent publishers, university presses, poorly paid but insanely creative authors, etc. I sell their books to (almost exclusively) independent bookstores. When I’m not selling to indie bookstores, I’m calling on a few larger companies based in my territory, and I’m working to convince those big guys to give the up-and-coming publishers and authors a shot.

Thank you, John.
