Pressing Matters: Week of December 9-13, 2013
Acquisitions
- We’re going through the current subs before closing down to submissions for awhile. Answers, acquisitions, and revisions ahoy!
- Whole stack of revisions to read through – please bear with us!
- Part of that includes a RAFT of sequels in the queue. 2014 is shaping up to be busy!
Editing
- Editor Aliza is busy proofreading Grave, so we’re almost off to the races there.
- Edits on Sword revisions continue…
- Edits on Mixed Feelings also continue!
Production
- The cover for The Dominion, which is going to be GLORIOUS. Now, to craft a text design that plays off the gorgeous font used…
Reviews, Promotions, and Buzz
- Susan Jane Bigelow stops by the Book Smugglers’ Smugglivus festivities to talk about her top book picks this year!
- Didn’t make it to Long Beach Comic & Horror Con? You can still catch Justin Robinson talking about turning your personal fears into effective horror with this podcast!
- David Colby has started a new project – an online serial novel! Go check out The Immortals!
- Oh, but you need even MORE to read? No problem! Anne E. Johnson has you covered with a short story!
Sundries
- We might have one or two packages to send out for the Infinity Key pre-orders. You know, just a couple. You do NOT want to know about the cupcakes.
- So by now you’ve probably heard about Amazon’s plans to unleash package-delivery drones, right? Well, Waterstones in England has a rejoinder for that…
- How to date a literary agent. Same goes for a small press, really. Although we also like getting flowers.
- A globe that warns, “Here be dragons.”
- Oh, how I wish I could pop by Hoxton Street Monster Supply…
- One must always study carefully…
- …though it’s easier to do so in a lovely reading nook.
- For those of you facing down this weekend’s storm, a little reminder to rejoice.
- Bonk.
