edits are off

The edits are off. To my delight, they were really pretty easy to do, coming in at 3.5 pages, which is, I think, the shortest author alteration set I’ve sent back to New York. So that all went pretty well, and it’s done with. Onward!

AHAHAHAHAHHAHAHA!

AHAHAHAHAH! I’d been going to spare the flist the sheer spam of another posting today, after that last long comics rant, but I just got email from The Best Agent Ever confirming that I could talk about something that’s been killing me to keep quiet about for the last few weeks.

I pitched HEART OF STONE to her at the time, and the day after I…
