Definitely call this person, every day if needed,
until you get an actual date. "In process" is lame
after 3 months. I can see a few weeks, but 3 months is
rediculous. Then, if they miss their date, start your
daily calls again.

Of course, I'd ask WHERE in the process is it (are
they having trouble cooking the berries down for ink?)
and WHO you can contact about getting it moved along.
Most likely you will want to speak with someone in
accounting.

If you get nowhere, bring your contract to your lawyer
and have him/her draw up a letter of contention.
