Ruthlessness could never be described as my defining trait. Of late, though, I have been ruthless. Ruthlessly putting my darlings to the sword as I edit the thumbnails for the next Punycorn book, Punycorn and the Princess of Thieves. Armed with notes from my editor, I have been assigned the task of putting the first half of the story through an editorial boot camp and come out the other end toned, focused and moisturised. But how, you ask? Easy. I scribble an inspirational note at the top of each page, "Fix This".
re: SPECIAL PLEADING, I have always liked that Jill Kane's work. And then Kim Thompson turned out not to be a girly after all either. In fact in comics at least they are ALL men posing as women with women's names... Andi!
"If I was able to foresee the schedules of the publishing gods" - I swear sometimes they don't even see them themselves. And then I swear a whole lot more.
