Comment on Edits At Last by William
Will Stephen use a bicycle in this book? I thought it would be a cool combination of his Lightfoot and strength sigl.

I’m glad you finally got the edits back! Hopefully none of the proposed changes affect things you’ve already written for book 5?

It is great to hear everything is working out smoothly.Lets hope the edits you need to do just superficial. Like you said your half way through book 5 lets get cracking on the rest of the book(1st draft). Keep up the fantastic work

I’m very happy for you!
I’m glad that things are going well with book #5 and (hopefully!) the edits for book #4 won’t be too much trouble.

Thanks for the update and good to hear that Book #5 is going so well, a little anxious that Book #4 Edits are finally going to be with you and just hope that the reason for delay wasn’t anything about the book itself!
I’m very much enjoying the series and looking forward with eager anticipation for Book #4 in November (Chapter #1 in September too?) and perhaps a bit more information on Hobbs and Joanna’s contribution in Stephen’s life?

So there is no sigl for clearing bruisings? Mending doesn’t apply an rebuild can only work on muscles, do all people that might get bruisings (like soliders) have basicly constant bruisings or do they get enhanced priorly, sothat there is no reason to think about healing bruisings?

At least the editor replied back to you. Hopefully nothing needs to be done so your draft will be ready for print

In reply to Bill.
Yes, I’ll let you know. I did finally hear back from my editor this week, but unfortunately the edits still aren’t done. I’ll put up a post when I know more.

Thank you very much for this! Interesting stuff… I hope that progress with Book #5 continues apace!
I’m assuming that you’d tell us if the First Edits had been received?

In reply to Benedict.
No choice but to wait it out.

Comment on Still Waiting by Bill
I’m really sorry that you are having such a long wait for the Book#4 edits to come back. I can understand your frustration with the publisher and a nagging doubt that the suggested Edits may somehow impact on the story-line of Book #5!
I always imagined that there was a close relationship between publisher and author, with the story coming from the author and the publisher (maybe) advising on current popular demand & crosschecking for internal typos plus continuity. Is there no way you can nudge them into saying just what/why the delay is?
[Perhaps a stiff email/letter from Charles Ashford would do the trick?]

Sales are fine, yes. And the book’s definitely coming out – the contract’s signed and the publication date is set for this November. They’re just being slow.

How frustrating! So sorry. Hopefully you’ll get the edits soon.

This just seems so strange. I thought sales on the new series were going well. I’m certainly planning on continuing to buy each book as it comes out! Is the publisher putting this on a back burner?

Start charging interest on missed sales due to delays on their part? *wink*
Seariously, it is rediculous but I guess you can use the time on book 5.

My current guess is about 10.
