Erindale Publishing is the fictitious business name for the "publishing" company established to market novels and short stories by Courtney Seligman (using his name and his pen name, C.E. Seligman), and erindalepublishing.com is the website created to serve that purpose. In other words, it is similar to an author website, except for not staing that. It exists for two reasons:

(1) My astronomy site, cseligman.com, uses tens of thousands of astronomical images, many of which are copyrighted and can only be legally used without paying royalties if it remains a completely non-profit, educational site. I can use it to note the existence of my novels and short stories, and provide links to places such as this site where interested readers can borrow or purchase them, but I cannot do a single thing to defray the cost of either that site or this one. But since ErindalePublishing.com contains only my own work it is not subject to those restrictions, so I can provide links enabling readers to obtain copies of my novels and short stories.

(2) Early on, all the legitimate agents I contacted about marketing my work made it clear that since they only take a percentage of their clients' royalties for their work, they need those clients to sell tens of thousands of copies of their works each year, which means those authors have to spend hundreds of hours per year pushing their work in the public's face and if possible, also publish new novels or non-fiction books on a regular basis; and at the time I had neither the time nor the energy to do that. That meant I had to self-publish, using a company that had a working relationship with various online marketers, such as Amazon.com. But though I chose to use a company with an extremely good reputation, and is now a wholly-owned subsidiary of Amazon, I feared that my novels might be published under several different imprints over the years; so I created Erindale Publishing to ensure that no matter who actually printed and marketed my work, it would always say that it was published by the same company: Erindale Publishing.
