Witchy Double-Header: Two Anthology Proof Sheets Corrected

It’s all about witches, the writing life, that is. At least for today — two anthology proof sheets to read and send back with any changes.

Both actually came to me late yesterday with the first, for “Flying” (see September 29, 28, 5), actually gone over last night, but with some extra questions, most of these regarding foreign spellings, to still be resolved. So another go-over came this morning with final corrections sent back, and acknowledged, later today.

Then the second one was for “The Good Work” (see September 27), a Victorian London-set “dreadpunky” story of underage witch hunters. After a quick preliminary glance over, I took this one to the public library computer — most questions here being minor ones concerning punctuation, but with a couple of word choice items that needed comments — and out it went a little after 6:30 this evening.

So just another day, not too exciting, just part of the process. But what is exciting is both books are racing for hopeful pre-Halloween release dates. And hopefully, by getting right onto my part of the effort, I’ll have helped them make it!
