Oh No: you are not alone. I just don't have a lot to contribute.
But I do wish you the best of Luck. I have tried to get 3 plays and one book printed in the past, with no luck. So I shall follow your progress should you decide to share it with us.
Again best of luck !

-joe (giving expression to my epeolatry) friday Speaking of emacity, I couldn't find any etymology for the word. Judging from the meaning it doesn't seem all that related to emaciate, but one can't help but think that it should be. Any information on its etymology?

well, here's what the wwftd master had to say this morning:
the worthless word for the day is: emacity
[fr. L. emacitas, a desire to buy] /ee MAS i tee/
rare a fondness for buying things
and it seems that emaciate is from emaciare, an entirely nother root.
