if it's clockwork it must be Phoenix . . .



Editor Mike Allen ([profile] time_shark) and publisher Vera Nazarian/Norilana Books ([profile] norilanabooks) have already posted the ARC cover for this forthcoming anthology, but it's a pretty splendid piece of a/w so let's see it here as well!

Meanwhile, apologies for the lack of much by way of posting on this blog this week: the to-be-read-urgently PDF proofs of my book The Dragons of Manhattan arrived on Sunday night from publisher Screaming Dreams at roughly the same time that Pam and I were at the emergency vet's watching one of our cats, Strider, breathe his last. It has been a busy but not very happy few days. Normal service will be resumed soon, honest.

It's been my experience that when you're proofing, there's always an "error" in the proof that you'll edit to correct. =)

Sure, no problem although I'll be out of town over the weekend.

Go do your own commitments first before plugging me. =P

"Sure, no problem although I'll be out of town over the weekend."

I'll get the PDF to you Real Soon Now, honest. There were enough corrections (embarrassingly, all but two of them being My Fault) that the publisher, Steve Upham of Screaming Dreams, decided it'd be worth having a revised proof. This came in yesterday; I'll try to give it a quick check before the end of the week . . .

No problem. It happens all the time. No rush lest you miss some errors.
