And more delays...

It's starting to be amusing in a way that is completely NOT. *L* Galleys are returned but still no word as to an actual release date.

On another note, I have too much to fit into Book 3 - Yipes. Looks like that may have to be split, but then how do I reconcile the conflict that I've already set up? Decisions, decisions.

Ah, well, at least I'm getting things done, which is more than I can say for the publisher. *G*

Understanding comes too late

One of the marvellous things about being busy with editing spaces in your galley proof is just how time-consumed you actually are.

One of the not-so-marvellous things is realising that yes, you did in fact agree to write all those things, and yes, actually, a deadline is looming.

How sad, when a deadline feels like a declaration of undying love.....

Patience is my by-word

Still no news from the publisher, so I must assume we are among those who are out in the cold until mid-January or later.

I would be nice if they sent out something that actually said what was going on, but I have heard nothing. I'll give them another week, now that the holidays are over, but then I will have to write to them, I suppose.

Delays, delays, delays

Well, I just got a letter from the publishing house. Somehow they have managed to overextend themselves for their 'before Christmas' publications.

What does this mean? This means that I may be one (perhaps among many) who will not see their book until after January, when their new on-line automated system is operational.

This, however is not certain, and may depend on whether the cover art I submitted was done to their specs. I'm sure it was, but since I have not yet received confirmation I can't be certain. According to their letter (which is rather uninformative), I probably know know for certain until next week.

Don't you just love when people aren't as organized as you are? *L*

Ah, well, I did tell people the book would be available for Christmas, but now??? I guess they can always purchase copies to give away for Valentine's day.
