So much to do, so little time…
Pressing Matters: Week of May 13-17, 2013
Acquisitions
- Looks like we’re going to get that great urban fantasy novel; we’re putting the author through a quick revision request to tighten up the ending, and then it’s time for for a formal announcement. So exciting!
Editing
- Infinity Key is with Commanatrix Sarah for editing, then goes back to Chrysoula to update any issues.
- Matt Adams is girding his loins to deal with the next round of notes on II Crimsonstreak. The rewrite is AWESOME, though, so all that really remains is the eternal question: do birdmen have beaks?
Production
- You can now pre-order the print version of The Daughter Star by Susan Jane Bigelow! It’s the usual deal, with great bonuses available!
- New round of cover comps for The Dominion, and we’re getting closer! All poor Chris has to do is create an entire city from scratch, after all…
- The brand-new production computer is dead. Ooooh dear.
Reviews, Promotions, and Buzz
- Haven’t picked up a copy of Constellation Games by Leonard Richardson yet? Now’s your chance to get something even more exciting! The novel is part of the current video game-themed StoryBundle! And they just added a new book as additional incentive!
- Are you in or near Philadelphia? Save the date for this Sunday, May 19, at 5pm: Anne E. Johnson will be doing a reading from Green Light Delivery at Head House Books!
- The Other Half of the Sky got an incredibly positive, thoughtful review from Andrew Liptak at Geek Magazine. Well worth the read.
Sundries
- Still in limbo on the relocation to Philadelphia. Many questions remain – such as, where the HECK are we going to store all these books, now that the Lair is no longer?
- Are you heading to BEA this year? There’s a HILARIOUS guide on things the official program doesn’t tell you. Biggest takeaway? Book folk require comfy shoes and booze. So much booze.
