“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

[...] (Prentice-Hall published The God of Jane in 1981.)

[...] Our neighbor across the hall first informed us. [...]

[...] Tam Mossman, Jane’s editor at Prentice-Hall, has notified her by telephone that within a few days she will receive a contract for the publication of this book.)

[...] She’s included a selection of Sumari prose and poetry in the Appendix of her novel, The Education of Oversoul 7, which Prentice-Hall is to publish this fall.)

(This a long session, given for Tam Mossman and Eve Naudain, of Prentice-Hall and New York City. [...]

[...] The last name of Cecile Grossman, an editor at Prentice-Hall, was mentioned by Seth, for instance. [...]

(Four months ago I wrote in Note 1 for Session 885 that through a series of misunderstandings the people at Ankh-Hermes, a publishing company in Holland, had violated their contract with Prentice-Hall by issuing a condensed translation of Seth Speaks. Our editor at Prentice-Hall, Tam Mossman, insisted that Ankh-Hermes publish another, full-length edition of Jane’s book in the Dutch language. [...]

On April 23, I met Miss Cunningham’s niece in the hall and asked about her condition. [...] She upset the whole floor, ran screaming up and down the halls, threw dishes at the nurses and was completely irrational.”

[...] And she’d rush ahead of me down the hall, so agitated that she’d shake all over. [...]

[...] Down the hall somewhere a woman was shouting periodically — a display that took a lot of work and energy after a few hours. [...]

(Before the session I’d asked Jane if Seth could comment upon the reported drop in sales of Seth Speaks recently as reported by Tam Mossman at Prentice-Hall. [...]

(Jane has been so busy finishing up the manuscript of her book on the Seth material, for Prentice-Hall, that we haven’t had a session since September 29.

[...] See the 503rd session for September 24 for Seth’s comments re Jane’s relief at Prentice-Hall’s approval, through Tam Mossman, of Jane’s book on the Seth material. [...]

The man at Prentice-Hall (Tam Mossman, an assistant editor), simply overstepped, as you both suspect. [...]

[...] (Cecile Grossman was an editor at Prentice-Hall then.) Mossman has an uncle, I believe, of whom he is fond, or was fond. [...]

[...] She rested when she heard the medicine cart in the hall near 330. [...]

[...] It matters little where the papers are kept; and the very academic characteristics that invisibly but definitely add their aura to Yale’s hallowed halls also means that the papers will be treated fairly, conservatively, and without any evangelical air.

(I’m beginning to get that harried feeling again, especially since another batch of mail arrived from Prentice-Hall today. [...]

[...] A couple of days ago 49 letters arrived from Prentice-Hall.

[...] Carol did not come into the room, however, but lingered with her sister (Pat) in the hall.

[...] Christina Woloschin is raising hell out in the hall, around the corner. [...]

[...] A vague uneasiness was growing in my mind: It seemed that Prentice-Hall was taking unusually long to officially clear The God of Jane and Seth’s The Individual and the Nature of Mass Events. [...]

[...] In March, Tam signed her to a contract for Seth, Dreams … on behalf of Prentice-Hall. [...] Tam left Prentice-Hall for other employment in 1982; he became my agent after Jane’s death in 1984. [...]

[...] But for convenience’s sake, in Seth, Dreams … I bring together certain events in chronological time; I feel that its having been written some time ago makes this book the ideal place for me to discuss Jane’s death, to unite the “past,” the “present,” and the “future’; I regard it as being next in line after Dreams, “Evolution,” and Value Fulfillment, which Prentice-Hall, Inc. [...]

[...] Last July my agent, Tam Mossman, phoned to ask that I search Jane’s papers for a manuscript he remembers her submitting to him some seventeen years ago, when he had been a young editor just beginning a career with Prentice-Hall. [...]

[...] I use the hospital in a positive way by plunging out into the hall; I signal myself that I mean to keep on living physical.

(That topic ties in with my idea that I mentioned to her this afternoon, about it hardly being a coincidence that many events in our lives are coming to a head at the same time: Our deep upset about Jane’s condition; the trouble with the disclaimer idea for Mass Events; Prentice-Hall’s reorganization into the General Publishing Division, in which all of their narrative books will be phased out, thus eliminating any real need for Tam and his job; indeed, Tam is looking at other job offers even now. [It’s been my position for some time now that Tam will end up leaving Prentice-Hall, or will be let go.] If and when he does go, we will be without our friend there, and will have to make decisions based on that departure. [...] I doubt if we would follow Tam helter-skelter to another publishing house if he left Prentice-Hall tomorrow—especially in light of our decision to hold off on Dreams. [...]

(I remarked to Jane today that if I’d known what I think I know now, today, a month ago we could have withdrawn Mass Events from Prentice-Hall, using the disclaimer dispute as an excuse, and delayed its publication for as long as we wanted to. [...]

[...] When Pete called Steve this morning he learned Steve had sent his proposal to Prentice-Hall a week ago, so Saul should have it by now.
