(Much has taken place since then. Jane has withdrawn Emir from consideration at Prentice-Hall, and in back of that decision lies a story too complicated to recite in detail here. Tam’s letter of today catalyzed her action, however, when he told her that Prentice-Hall had decided to publish Emir through the children’s department. Jane feared the book, which she regards as the beginning of Oversoul Seven, would be lost in a tiny printing. The advance would also be very low.
(Jane relied on her impulses and Framework 2 for her decision—actions that she would have probably found very difficult to carry out earlier. “I still can’t believe I called up a publisher and told them to send back a book they wanted to publish,” she said more than once. “You can’t say I wasn’t spontaneous,” she added, “or that I was cowardly or wishy-washy....” Actually, a string of events, evidently out of Framework 2, were involved, and would make a most interesting study of how Framework 2 aids one in making decisions or bringing about events they want to see happen. Oversoul Seven is also involved in some fashion, especially the movie aspects —for when Jane called Eleanor Friede to offer her Emir, Eleanor told Jane she was about to call her about Seven, the call having to do with possible motion picture connotations, through a well-known screenwriter; that is the kind of event intertwined with the whole affair; nor have Jane and Eleanor contacted each other for probably a couple of years.
(All in all, the whole affair is proving to be quite instructive in a number of ways. Eleanor is to see Emir for possible purchase. Jane’s ability to deal with others is obviously better. Her physical condition continues to show beneficial changes. I don’t think it any coincidence that Jane contacted Eleanor, who is the editor for Dick Bach, who is a counterpart of Jane’s. [Jane first called Pat Golbitz, but Pat was out of her office—so Pat doesn’t get to see Emir first.]
