Donald Brace informs Woolf that he has offered Flush's serial rights to several magazines (Pictorial Review, Woman's Home Companion, Ladies' Home Journal) but all have been rejected. Brace has sent the manuscript to Ellery Sedgwick of the Atlantic Monthly, and offers $1200 for serial rights to complete serialization for the book's publication by October 10. Sedgwick plans to divide the work into 3-4 instalments. Brace thinks the offered sum is too small and is likely worse than if another more popular magazine had serialization rights. He asks if the English publication could be delayed for simultaneous publication, and hopes to receive the proofs soon. Typescript letter signed.
