Jonathan Karp, Executive Vice President and Publisher of Simon & Schuster, who negotiated the agreement for world rights with Jenny Bent of The Bent Agency, wrote to Hartman back in 2004 after seeing one of his stories, but didn't receive a proposal from him until six years later, when, Hartman explained, he was finally ready to write the book.
Steve Hartman said, "I had no problem finding stories in other people, but I didn't have a clue what mine was. It has taken me this long to figure it out."
