The subtitles are hilarious. Did no-one check them? It makes a mockery of the whole video about editing and proofreading.

Thanks so much for making us aware that YouTube's machine-generated closed captioning was not doing a good job with our video. We've now uploaded our own captions and we hope you find them more useful.

I was the same though the recent Random House’s Hydra changes contract terms gave me a moment pause. They are clearly a force to recon with after purchasing Penguin. I hope they regain there footing towards upholding a common respective and Professional with prospective Authors and readers alike.

I am very conflicted about random House right now. Random House’s Hydra contract terms that seemed so negatively nasty. As now Random House’s Hydra changes contract terms was positive move. I am very wary considering how quickly they made such a negative move with there contract as all my life Random House was the example of a solid professional grip of reality of the business.

I went to submit my manuscript to Random House Australia, but when I got there, there was no one around. I was sure I had the right address, but all I found was a ten foot high brick wall. After much searching I noticed a small sign on the very highest brick. It read 'NO.'

Very Interesting! Random House is a class act publishing company!

Random Question from my house: Will Random house take on a new novelist in his fifties, assuming great story?
