Meet The New Boss

[merlinscribe]

My new editor has been ignoring me. Sound familiar? So anyway, Misty and I have decided just to go straight ahead and finish the book and hand it over. I expect to turn it in by the end of summer, if all goes well on this end. Maybe she'll be thrilled and delighted and put it immediately into production. I wouldn't hold my breath, though.

Wish the news was better.



Meanwhile, there's a new/old deleted scene from TO LIGHT A CANDLE over at the Library:

I am surprised and shocked a project with Mercedes Lackey doesn't warrant more respect from the publisher/editor. I would think with her fan base they would give you higher priority.

You'd think that and I'd think that, but Tor isn't her "home" publishing house (I believe that's still DAW) and apparently has no plans to become it. Ms. Lackey is only popular with her fans, not with award committees. Or the people at publishers' who decide who the next hot read is going to be.
