Well, now things are moving on Merm-8. I’ve gotten contacted by my editor and promotions specialist. Weird how nothing for nine months, and now a bunch of stuff is all due at the same time. And meanwhile I’m 75% totally complete with the next novel. Lovely planning. The edits themselves weren’t bad. Mostly changing hyphens to em-dashes, worrying about commas. Interestingly, the editor is choosing to insert “and then” or “then” instead of eliminating them entirely. I thought was bad times. But I guess every publishing house’s style is different. For other things, I deferred to the editor ninety percent of the time. Like not using all caps for emphasis…
