How did you break in? Using an agent or approaching publishers directly?
L.E. Modesitt Jr.
I didn't have any choice. I started out writing short fiction, and when I graduated to writing novels no agents were interested. So I approached editors directly back in the days when all publishers actually had slush piles and read them. That approach is much harder these days... MUCH harder.

I just finished reading Mongrel Mage and Outcasts of Order (both wonderful!), and I'm very pleased to learn you have a third book coming out so that Beltur, Jessyla, Lhordaraak, Tulya, and Taelya can reestablished Haven. I have a vague idea or theory, but I wondered if you could tell us more precisely when Beltur's tale fits in the overall timeline or history of this world?
