“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

[...] (To make the record complete, it should be noted that Jane’s first book on psychic phenomena was How to Develop Your ESP Power. It was published in hardcover and paperback editions in 1966 and 1974, respectively, by Frederick Fell Publishers, Inc., New York, N.Y. 10016. [...]

[...] The edition was printed in Mexico and is on sale in that country and on our West Coast. [...] The almost wordless quality of our surprise reminded me of our feelings of a year and a half ago, when we’d learned that the Dutch firm, Ankh-Hermes, had published an abridged edition of Seth Speaks in that language, without our permission.⁷

[...] On the same day I returned them to Prentice-Hall, I also sent in Jane’s signed contract for If We Live Again—and the mail brought us the copy-edited manuscript for God of Jane.

[...] Even the simple act of writing was becoming increasingly difficult for her.¹ On December 4 I sent back to our publisher the corrected copy-edited manuscript for God of Jane. [...]

A paperback edition will indeed appear.

[...] I’d forgotten to do it last night, so absorbed was I in working on the copy-edited Mass Events. [...]

[...] The problem — the challenge — would be to find the physical time to do the necessary editing and notes to put such a manuscript in shape for publication; this would be a job that could easily take a year. [...]

[...] I do when I’m writing, editing, or rewriting my own work. [...]

(Today Jane had been reading Experimental Psychology by C. G. Jung, first American edition, published by Jung’s heirs in 1968. [...]

(Today I finished editing Chapter 11 of Psyche—Seth’s latest completed book, and wrapped it, with Chapter 10, for mailing to Prentice-Hall tomorrow. [...]

[...] I meant of course that it was her first from a reader of the German edition, of Seth Speaks. [...]

[...] The people who really enjoy these books will buy Prentice editions as their own wear out, using hardcovers to make notations, etc.

(Today Jane had been reading Experimental Psychology, by C.G. Jung, first American edition, published by Jung’s heirs in 1968, etc.)

[...] We still feel regret that the company had to go to all of that extra expense in order to publish a second edition of the book. [...] Actually, almost two years passed before we received our copies of the new edition.

Early in September—magically appearing as though from another reality, for we’d quite forgotten about the situation—we received through Prentice-Hall six copies of the reprinted Dutch-language edition of Seth Speaks. [...]

There will be enough money so that the material can also be distributed in edited version from the earliest sessions. [...]

[...] Our editor at Prentice-Hall, Tam Mossman, insisted that Ankh-Hermes publish another, full-length edition of Jane’s book in the Dutch language. [...]

[...] There seems to be a chance also of trying to get Prentice-Hall to publish the three Seven books in simultaneous hardcover and trade paperback editions, if we interpret the letter correctly. [...]

[...] At this time Sue is working on a novel of her own and co-editing a weekly newspaper in a small town some 50 miles north of Elmira, New York (where Jane and I live).

[...] Then Saturday we learned by mail that Bantam is about to contract for the paperback edition of Politics. [...]

(Because of the press of other matters following the 753rd session — my work doing the notes for Seth’s “Unknown” Reality, Jane’s involvement in writing a new introduction for one of her own books that’s coming out in a new paperback edition, and a stream of unexpected visitors — we didn’t hold any sessions for several weeks. [...]

(And these final notes: We still don’t know whether the Dutch edition of Seth Speaks has been published — but we do know that our good friend Sue Watkins is presently working on Chapter 15 of Conversations With Seth, the book she’s writing about Jane’s ESP classes. [...]

[...] They were taken from her journals and edited as little as possible to preserve her original spirit. [...]
