Good, this is the sort of thing I like to hear. :-)

I am currently not-working on updating my CV before sending it to someone. (The local second-hand bookshop, in fact.) And wondering how to say, in one short phrase, "I have had several books published by a Real Publisher, and yes I do know what that means and that it does not include operations like Publish America." For me that is *much* more brain-bending than the many-stepped but essentially simple maths that Anna has explained so clearly.
